Patients were categorized into fusion-positive and fusion-negative groups. To check the association between fusion status in blood samples and clinical features, Wilcox test was applied to continuous clinical variables (5-year and 10-year NOMOGRAM) and Fisher’s exact test was applied to categorical clinical variables (Gleason’s grading). p value ≤ 0.05 was used to define significance. All the statistical analysis was performed by R programming.
