Figure 1. Relative cox-2 mRNA expression in BCC tissues and adjcant normal tissues. The mRNA expression of cox-2 in BCC tissues were significantly higher than that in adjacent normal tissues (p < .001).

Figure 3. Kaplan–Meier analysis for estimating the overall survival of patients with BCC. Patients with high expression of cox-2 had shorter overall survival than those with low cox-2 expression (log rank test, p < .001).
