marginally significantP =0.086
There was a marginally significant advantage of DFS in ACSL4 high-expression group over the low-expression group (log-rank P =0.086), while ACSL4 expression could serve as an independent prognostic factor of DFS in the multivariate analysis (adjusted HR=0.283, 95% CI 0.083–0.966, P =0.044; likelihood ratio test; Fig. 8 a).
