When patients were stratified by either gender or smoking status, those with high TWIST1 had significantly elevated risk of death compared to those with low TWIST1 in male (HR = 1.59, 95% CI: 1.12 – 2.25) (p = 0.010) and borderline significant elevated risk in smoker (HR = 1.38, 95% CI: 0.99 – 1.94) (p =0.058) subgroups (Table 4 ) after adjusting covariates.
