We found a highly significant association between the presence of vascular invasion and low BMI-1 mRNA expression ( P =0.005, Figure 1B , Table 2 ).
We found a highly significant association between the presence of vascular invasion and low BMI-1 mRNA expression ( P =0.005, Figure 1B , Table 2 ).
Low mRNA expression was also associated with high histologic grade ( P =0.02), whereas the association with non-endometrioid histologic subtype was of borderline significance ( P =0.07).
The correlation between low expression of BMI-1 protein and histological grade 3 and non-endometrioid subtype is weaker and not significant as compared with the significant or borderline significant correlation for low mRNA expression and these two factors.
