Systematic review and meta-analysis of the prognostic significance of microRNAs in cervical cancer.

ABSTRACT: In this meta-analysis, we analyzed case-control studies that assessed the prognostic potential of miRNAs in cervical cancer. We comprehensively searched EMBASE and PubMed databases and enrolled seven studies with 445 cervical cancer cases. A fixed effects model was used to calculate pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and associated 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) from the overall survival (OS) data. Our analysis showed that poor OS in cervical cancer was associated with low miR-125 expression (HR = 1.61, 95% CI: 1.02-2.55, P = 0.042; I2 = 10.1%, P = 0.292; n = 99), low miR-145 expression (HR = 1.70, 95% CI: 1.29-2.24, P < 0.001; I2 = 0%, P = 0.560; n = 193) and high miR-196 expression (HR = 0.28, 95% CI: 0.15-0.52, P < 0.001; I2 = 0%, P = 0.950, n = 197). This makes microRNAs such as miR-125, miR-145 and miR-196 potential prognostic biomarkers in cervical cancer.

Prognostic Significance of MicroRNAs in Glioma: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Project description:PurposeDifferent microRNAs (miRs) have been demonstrated to relate with the outcome of glioma patients, while the conclusions are inconsistent. We perform a meta-analysis to clarify the relationship between different miRs and prognosis of glioma.MethodsRelated studies were retrieved from PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) of different miRs expression for survival and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using random-effects model.ResultsA total of 15 miRs with 4708 glioma patients were ultimately included. Increased expression of miR-15b (HR, 1.584; 95% CI, 1.199-2.092), 21 (HR, 1.591; 95% CI, 1.278-1.981), 148a (HR, 1.122; 95% CI, 1.023-1.231), 196 (HR, 1.877; 95% CI, 1.033-3.411), 210 (HR, 1.251; 95% CI, 1.010-1.550), and 221 (HR, 1.269; 95% CI, 1.054-1.527) or decreased expression of miR-106a (HR, 0.809; 95% CI, 0.655-0.998) and 124 (HR, 0.833; 95% CI, 0.729-0.952) was correlated with poor outcome of glioma patients.ConclusionsmiR-15b, 21, 148a, 196, 210, 221, 106a, and 124 are valuable biomarkers for the prognosis of glioma which might be used in clinical settings.

Prognostic and diagnostic significance of lncRNAs expression in cervical cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to be abnormally expressed in cervical cancer (CC) and presumably serve as diagnostic or prognostic markers. We thus performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the clinical values of dysregulated lncRNAs in CC. A literature search was performed using the electronic databases PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science. A total of 22 relevant studies were eligible, including 21 on clinicopathological features, 18 on prognosis, and 4 on diagnosis. For clinicopathological features, HOTAIR expression was positively associated with tumor size (odds ratio [OR]=2.19, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.42-3.38, P=0.000) and lymph node metastasis (OR=6.04, 95% CI 3.51-10.42, P=0.000). For the prognostic values, up-regulated HOTAIR had an unfavorable impact on overall survival ([OS]; hazard ratio [HR]=1.94, 95%CI 1.17-3.22, P=0.011) and disease-free survival (HR=2.61, 95%CI 1.35-5.05, P=0.004), and high PVT1 expression was correlated with shorter OS (HR=1.66, 95%CI 1.21-2.29, P=0.002). For the diagnostic values, the pooled result showed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.85, with 85% sensitivity and 81% specificity in discriminating patients with CC from healthy controls. Overall, we conclude that lncRNAs might serve as promising indicators for prognostic and diagnostic evaluation of patients with CC.

Prognostic value of microRNAs in lung cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Project description:Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer-associated mortality throughout the world. The prognosis of the disease depends on many factors including the stage and type of cancer. Many studies have identified various microRNAs (miRNAs) that affect the prognosis of lung cancer. In order to systemically analyze the available clinical data, the present study performed a meta-analysis to examine all evidence on the potential role of miRNAs as novel predictors of survival in lung cancer. Literature published in English prior to February 1st, 2018 was searched through PubMed to review all of the associations between individual miRNAs and groups of miRNAs with the prognosis of lung cancer. Data was extracted using standard forms and pooled odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. A total of 15 eligible studies were included in the meta-analysis. These represented 1,753 lung cancer patients and 20 miRNAs. A total of 8 downregulated miRNAs were associated with poorer overall survival (OS) [hazard ratio (HR)=0.59, 95% CI: 0.47-0.75, P<1×10-4], while 10 upregulated miRNAs were associated with poorer OS (HR=1.76, 95% CI: 1.31-2.35, P<1×10-4). Additionally, low miRNA expression was associated with lymph node metastasis [LNM; relative risk (RR)=0.53, 95% CI: 0.46-0.61, P<1×10-4]. The expression of miRNAs was not associated with lung cancer stage (RR=1.07, 95% CI: 0.94-1.22, P=0.23). Expression levels of different miRNAs were associated with the OS and LNM of patients with lung cancer. These miRNAs may be applied as potential prognostic markers in lung cancer.

Prognostic significance of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio in cervical cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies.

Project description:Background and aimsThe prognostic role of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in cervical cancer are controversial. We conducted this meta-analysis to obtain a more accurate assessment of prognostic significance of NLR in cervical cancer.ResultsA total of 9 studies, consisting of 2,804 patients, were selected in this meta-analysis. Our pooled results showed that high pre-treatment NLR level was significantly associated with poorer overall survival (HR: 1.88, 95% CI 1.30-2.73) and shorter progression free survival (HR 1.65, 95% CI 1.18-2.29). Additionally, increased NLR was also significantly correlated with tumor size (OR 2.05, 95% CI 1.14-3.65), advanced FIGO stage (OR 2.12, 95% CI1.28-3.49) and lymph node involvement (OR 2.24, 95% CI 1.65-3.04).Materials and methodsWe conducted a systematic literature search using the electronic databases PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase up to May 2016.Statistical analysis was performed using Stata 10.0.ConclusionsElevated pretreatment NLR could serve as a predicative factor of poor prognosis for cervical cancer patients.

Systematic review and meta-analysis of the prognostic significance of microRNAs related to metastatic and EMT process among prostate cancer patients.

Project description:The ability of tumor cells to spread from their origin place and form secondary tumor foci is determined by the epithelial-mesenchymal transition process. In epithelial tumors such as prostate cancer (PCa), the loss of intercellular interactions can be observed as a change in expression of polarity proteins. Epithelial cells acquire ability to migrate, what leads to the formation of distal metastases. In recent years, the interest in miRNA molecules as potential future treatment options has increased. In tumor microenvironment, miRNAs have the ability to regulate signal transduction pathways, where they can act as suppressors or oncogenes. MiRNAs are secreted by cancer cells, and the changes in their expression levels are closely related to a cancer progression, including epithelial-mesenchymal transition. These molecules offer new diagnostic and therapeutic possibilities. Therapeutics which make use of synthesized RNA fragments and mimic or block miRNAs affected in PCa, may lead to inhibition of tumor progression and even disease re-emission. Based on appropriate qualification criteria, we conducted a selection process to identify scientific articles describing miRNAs and their relation to epithelial-mesenchymal transition in PCa patients. The studies were published in English on Pubmed, Scopus and the Web of Science before August 08, 2019. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) as well as total Gleason score were used to assess the concordance between miRNAs and presence of metastases. A total of 13 studies were included in our meta-analysis, representing 1608 PCa patients and 15 miRNA molecules. Our study clarifies a relationship between the clinicopathological features of PCa and the aberrant expression of several miRNA as well as the complex mechanism of miRNA molecules involvement in the induction and promotion of the metastatic mechanism in PCa.

Prognostic significance of Rab27 expression in solid cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Project description:Rab27 is an essential molecule of vesicle fusion and trafficking in exosome secretion process, which plays important roles in cancer progression and metastasis. Recent studies reported that Rab27 expression is also associated with cancer prognosis. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to reveal the prognostic significance of Rab27 expression in solid cancer. Data were extracted by searching on PubMed, Embase and Cochrane library until February 15 2020. Pooled hazard ratio (HR) with confidence interval (CI) was calculated to evaluate the association between Rab27 expression and survival in solid cancer. Ten studies with 1434 cancer patients were including for this meta-analysis. High expression of Rab27 was associated with poor survival (HR 2.67, 95% CI 1.52-4.69, p?=?0.001). High expression of Rab27A was significantly associated with lymph node metastasis (HR 1.53, 95% CI 1.00-2.34, p?=?0.048). High expression of Rab27B was significantly correlated with lymph node and distant metastasis (HR 2.15, 95% CI 1.56-2.95, p?<?0.001; HR 6.80, 95% CI 3.12-14.85, p?<?0.001), and higher TNM stage (HR 2.55, 95% CI 1.78-3.65, p?<?0.001). This meta-analysis revealed that Rab27 expression could be a potential prognostic marker in solid cancer.

Prognostic Significance of Glucocorticoid Receptor Expression in Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Project description:In solid malignancies, the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) signalling axis is associated with tumour progression and GR antagonists are in clinical development. Therefore, GR expression may be a useful potential prognostic or predictive biomarker for GR antagonist therapy in cancer. The aim of this review is to investigate if GR expression in tumours is predictive of overall survival or progression free survival. Twenty-five studies were identified through systematic searches of three databases and a meta-analysis conducted using a random effects model, quantifying statistical heterogeneity. Subgroup analysis was conducted for cancer types and publication bias was assessed via funnel plots. There was high heterogeneity in meta-analysis of the studies in all cancer types, which found no association between high GR expression with overall survival (pooled unadjusted HR 1.16, 95% CI (0.89-1.50), n = 2814; pooled adjusted HR 1.02, 95% CI (0.77-1.37), n = 2355) or progression-free survival (pooled unadjusted HR 1.12, 95% CI (0.88-1.42), n = 3365; pooled adjusted HR 1.04, 95% CI (0.6-1.81), n = 582) across all cancer types. However, subgroup meta-analyses showed that high GR expression in gynaecological cancers (endometrial and ovarian) (unadjusted HR 1.83, 95% CI (1.31-2.56), n = 664) and early stage, untreated triple negative breast cancers (TNBCs) (unadjusted HR 1.73, 95% CI (1.35-2.23), n = 687) is associated with disease progression. GR expression in late stage, chemotherapy treated TNBC was not prognostic (unadjusted HR 0.76, 95% CI (0.44, 1.32), n = 287). In conclusion, high GR expression is associated with an increased risk of disease progression in gynaecological and early stage, untreated TNBC. Additional studies are required to elucidate the tumour specific function of the GR receptor in order to ensure GR antagonists target the correct patient groups.

Prognostic significance of TRIM59 for cancer patient survival: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Project description:BackgroundThe family of tripartite motif (TRIM) proteins, which includes 80 known TRIM protein genes in humans, play a key role in cellular processes. TRIM59, a member of the TRIM family of proteins, has been reported to be involved in the carcinogenesis of multiple types of tumors. However, the prognostic value of TRIM59 in the survival of tumor patients remains controversial. We therefore conducted a meta-analysis to assess the prognostic significance of TRIM59 in cancer patients.Materials and methodsPubMed, Embase, VIP, CNKI and Wanfang Data were searched for eligible reports published before September 30, 2018. The hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were adopted to estimate the association between TRIM59 and overall survival (OS).ResultsSix studies with 1584 patients were included to assess the effect. The results showed that high levels of TRIM59 were significantly associated with poor OS in cancer patients (HR = 1.43, 95%CI: 1.24-1.66, P < .001), indicating that higher TRIM59 expression could be an independent prognostic factor for poor survival in cancer patients.ConclusionOur meta-analysis suggests that higher TRIM59 expression predicts poor prognosis in cancer patients, and it may therefore serve as a promising prognostic factor.

Prognostic significance of systemic inflammatory markers in esophageal cancer: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Project description:AimImpact of several immune-inflammatory markers on long-term outcome has been reported in various malignancies. The aim of the present study was to evaluate through a meta-analysis the oncological outcome of immune-inflammatory markers, such as neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CAR) in esophageal cancer.MethodsA systematic electronic search for relevant studies was carried out in PubMed, Cochrane library, Embase, and Google scholar. Meta-analysis was done using hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) as effect measures. A systematic review and meta-analysis were undertaken according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses protocol. P-values <.01 were considered statistically significant.ResultsA total of 10 retrospective articles (n = 4551) were included in this study. Synthesized results showed that higher NLR and CAR were significantly associated with poor overall survival (HR 1.47, 95% CI = 1.32-1.63, P < .00001) and HR 1.88, 95% CI = 1.28-2.77, P < .001, respectively). On the contrary, PLR was not a prognostic factor in our analysis (HR 1.25, 95% CI = 1.01-1.54, P < .01). Elevated NLR, PLR, and CAR were strongly associated with a higher T stage (HR 2.28, 95% CI = 1.67-3.11; HR 1.57, 95% CI = 1.29-1.90; HR 1.76, 95% CI = 1.16-2.67, respectively). Begg's funnel plots identified significant publication bias in NLR, but not in PLR and CAR.ConclusionNLR and CAR represent useful guides for the management of esophageal cancer, although publication bias should be considered. Further prospective studies are needed to confirm the results of the present study.
