## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. In nonsmall cell lung cancer, tumor parathyroid hormone‐related protein (PTHrP) expression predicts longer survival in women but not in men. To explain the sex‐dependent survival effect, the authors proposed that hormonal influences decrease PTHrP in men versus women, th
Accumulation of mutant p53 protein occurs frequently in human malignancies, including 40-60% of non-small cell lung carcinomas. The implications of such p53 over-expression, usually assessed by immunohistochemical techniques, for the prognosis of lung cancer patients remain undetermined. In this stu
