| Description | The reported findings confirmed the relationship of p53, MDM2, and COX-2 to biological process of pancreatic cancer. The expression of none of the examined proteins showed to be a valuable independent prognostic factor. On the contrary, grade and nodal status showed to be a valuable predictor of a worse survival. |
