  1. Data are presented as median (min, max). CP-Be represents cystoprostatectomy samples with no evidence of PCa, CP-PCa represents cystoprostatectomy samples with incidental PCa, RP-Be represent histologically benign samples from radical prostatectomy specimens and RP-PCa represents cancerous samples from radical prostatectomy specimens
