(Lane S) Standard (Novex Mark 12); (lane 1) anti-Hu-positive NSCLC patient with a typical reactivity at 38 kDa; (lane 2) NSCLC patient with a 45-kDa reactivity and axonal staining, as shown in Figure 1; (lane 3) healthy control patient.

Fig 4 Survival functions of antineural antibody-positive and -negative NSCLC patients presented as Kaplan-Meier plots. (A) All patients (p = 0.005); (B) stage I and II (p = 0.056); (C) stage III (p = 0.026). The Annals of Thoracic Surgery , DOI: ( /S (99) )

Fig 5 Survival functions of stage III patients grouped by ANA finding presented as Kaplan-Meier plots. Log-rank test showed a significantly better prognosis of the ANA-positive stage III patients (p = ). The Annals of Thoracic Surgery , DOI: ( /S (99) )
