Prognostic value of microRNA-451 in various cancers: A meta-analysis
Pathology - Research and Practice(2019)
Abstract
Background: Increasing evidence shows microRNA-451 plays a crucial role in various tumors, but there is inconsistency. The aim of this study was to explore the prognostic role of miR-451 in various tumors. Methods: Online PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane library database were searched through February 2019. Hazard ratios (HRs) were extracted and used to describe the association between expression of microRNA-451 and survival outcome, and the correlation between microRNA-451 and clinicopathologic features were described by pooled odds ratios (ORs). Results: Sixteen retrospective studies containing 2122 patients were incorporated in this meta-analysis. High expression of miR-451 was considered statistically associated with prolonged overall survival (OS) (HR = 0.62, 95% CI 0.49-0.80, p < 0.001) as well as RFS/DFS (HR = 0.55, 95% CI 0.42-0.71, p < 0.001) compared with low expression of miR-451. Besides, the pooled ORs revealed significant association between high expression of miR-451 with lymph node invasion (yes vs. no) (OR = 0.64, 95% CI 0.46-0.90, P = 0.01), tumor diameter (big vs. small) (OR = 0.77, 95% CI 0.60-0.97, P = 0.028) and tumor stage (III + IV vs. I + II) (OR = 0.62, 95% CI 0.42-0.93, P = 0.019). Conclusion: MicroRNA-451 may serve as a promising clinical prognostic biomarker in various carcinomas.
