Scatter plots showing the correlation between preoperative values of (A) tumor volume (log scale) and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1, linear scale), r = 0.276, p = 0.041; (B) tumor volume (log scale) and soluble α-Klotho protein (sKl, linear scale), r = 0.527, p < 0.001; (C) growth hormone (GH, log scale) and IGF-1 (linear scale), r = 0.368, p = 0.006; (D) GH (log scale) and sKl (linear scale), r = 0.661, p < 0.001; Females are represented by grey triangles and males are shown as black squares. The correlation coefficient r and the p value were calculated according to Spearman.
