Lack of association between clinical outcome and tumor staging, age, bulkiness, or frontline therapies and the overexpression of FGF2 and SDC1 by HL cell lines. Contingency analysis was performed against major clinical characteristics (y-axis, right column) including tumor stage (p > 0.4), age group (p > 0.11), bulkiness of the disease (p > 0.18), and frontline therapies used (p > 0.27) for HL patients with good outcome (GO) vs. poor outcome (PO) (x-axis). The percentage of each clinical characteristic within each group is indicated.
