2 Fig 1 (A) Overall survival of 36 alcohol-abusing patients (Etoh; broken line) and 78 nonabusing patients (Non-etoh; solid line) with nonsmall-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). aMedian survival in months (95% confidence intervals). bGehans-Wilcoxon log-rank test. Error bars ± SEM. (B) Progression-free survival of 36 alcohol-abusing patients (Etoh; broken line) and 78 nonabusing patients (Non-etoh; solid line) with NSCLC. aMedian survival in months (95% confidence intervals). bGehans-Wilcoxon log-rank test. cProgression = 20% increase in size of measurable disease or any new lesions.
