Patient survival after diagnosis of MDS by DJ-1 expression. (A) Survival among patients with DJ-1 levels ≤ 0.99 (broken line; n = 24) and among patients with DJ-1 levels greater than 0.99 (solid line; n = 34; P = .10) log-rank (Mantel-Cox). (B) Survival was superior in patients with DJ-1/p53 ratios 1.01 or less (broken line; n = 21) than among patients with ratios greater than 1.01 (solid line; n = 37; P = .08) log-rank (Mantel-Cox) test (7 patients with DJ-1/p53 ratios 1.01 or less, and 6 patients with DJ-1/p53 ratios greater than 1.01 were censored at the time they underwent hematopoietic cell transplantation).
