The long interspersed nucleotide element 1 methylation levels in lung adenocarcinoma and matched normal lung specimens. The cancer tissues showed significantly lower levels of methylation than the matched normal lung (p < by the paired t test).

(A) Kaplan-Meier curves for disease-free survival according to quartiles (Q1 to Q4) of LINE-1 methylation in lung adenocarcinoma. Q1: blue line, Q2: red line, Q3: green line, Q4: purple line. (B)(C)(D) Kaplan-Meier curves for disease-free survival; Q4 represents the “hypomethylated group” (green line) and Q1, Q2, and Q3 represent the “non-hypomethylation group” (blue line). The numbers inside the graphs represent the patients at risk in 0, 12, and 24 months after surgery.
