- The patient characteristics are summarized in this table. The incident column refers to group-2 patients (unfavorable survival outcome) and the censored column refers to group-1 patients (favorable survival outcome). The mean and standard deviation (SD) are provided for the continuous variables and percentages (%) are provided for the other variables by group. The number of patients (n) for each variable is given for each group. The incident and censored group characteristics were compared with either the t-test (*) or binomial proportional test. The relevant p-values are provided in the last column (right).
