  1. Correlations between continuous NEDD9 expression and leukocyte count, enlargement of lymph nodes, and splenomegaly at baseline time point were evaluated using Mann–Whitney U test. The analyses of lymph node and spleen sizes refer only to patients with measurements via CT scan. A p-value of <0.05 was defined as significant (bold value). No adjustments for multiple testing were done. The analyses were performed using SPSS 27.0.
