by Li Z-X, Chen J-X, Zheng Z-J, Cai W-J, Yang X-B, Huang Y-Y, Gong Y, Xu F, Chen Y-S and Lin L (2022) 12:1051148. doi: 10.3389/fonc.2022.1051148
Error in Figure/Table
In the published article, there was an error in Figure 1 High expression of MVD predicted unfavorable prognosis of IDC patients. as published. In Figure 1B, the title of X axis was “Specificity”, it should be corrected to “1-Specificity”. The corrected Figure 1 High expression of MVD predicted unfavorable prognosis of IDC patients. and its caption appear below.
FIGURE 1
Figure 1 High expression of MVD predicted unfavorable prognosis of IDC patients. (A) Representative images of immunohistochemical (IHC) staining of vWF and CD34 in samples from breast invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) patients. (B) ROC curve of the CD34 and vWF by the DFS of IDC patients. (C, D) Kaplan-Meier analysis of DFS and OS of IDC patients from our cohort by vWF and CD34.
In the published article, there was an error in Figure 2 MVD level is positively correlated with EndMT markers in breast cancer. as published. In Figure 2A, B, the red “#” and green “*” were missing. The corrected Figure 2 MVD level is positively correlated with EndMT markers in breast cancer. and its caption appear below.
FIGURE 2
Figure 2 MVD level is positively correlated with EndMT markers in breast cancer. (A, B) Representative images of double-IHC staining of vWF, CD34 (brown, with red “#”) and either α-SMA, FSP-1 or Vimentin (red, with green “*”) in samples from IDC patients. (C–G) Kaplan-Meier analysis of DFS and OS of IDC patients from our cohort by α-SMA, FSP-1, Vimentin, VE-Cadherin and Fibronectin.
