  1. HK2 hexokinase 2, HOTAIR HOX transcript antisense RNA, IQR interquartile range, Significance level at P value < 0.05, TNM classification: T2 indicates that the cancer’s greatest dimension measures between 2 cm and 4 cm, while T3 indicates that the cancer is larger than 4 cm but still confined within the pancreas. Post hoc test P value: a ANT vs T2, b ANT vs T3, c T2 vs T3
