Abstract EN
Aim.
There is increasing evidence that high expression levels of the gastric carcinoma highly expressed transcript 1 (GHET1), a long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), are associated with cancer prognosis and may be used as a valuable biomarker for cancer patients.
The purpose of this meta-analysis was to analyze existing data to reveal potential clinical applications of GHET1 for cancer prognosis and tumor progression.
All of these studies included in this meta-analysis were collected through a variety of retrieval strategies; and the enrolled articles were qualified via the meta-analysis of enrolled studies in epidemiology (MOOSE) and the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA) checklists.
Materials and Methods.
The literature collection was performed by a comprehensive search through electronic databases for studies published on or before March 10, 2019.
These included the Cochrane library, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Springer, Science Direct, and three Chinese databases: CNKI, Weipu, and Wanfang.
Seven studies that met the specified criteria were analyzed in the present research.
Results.
The combined results indicate that an elevated GHET1 expression level is significantly associated with poor overall survival (OS) (HR=2.40, 95% CI: 1.87–3.08, p<0.001) and tumor progression (III/IV vs.
I/II: HR=1.80, 95% CI: 1.48–2.18, p<0.001) in multiple cancers.
The elevated GHET1 expression was also associated with lymph node metastasis (LNM) (HR=2.44, 95% CI: 1.86–3.20, p<0.001) in Chinese cancer patients.
Conclusions.
The present findings indicate that an increased GHET1 expression level is associated with poor OS, tumor progression, and LNM in patients with multiple tumors and may serve as a useful prognostic biomarker in Chinese cancer patients.
