LncRNAs act as prognostic and diagnostic biomarkers in renal cell carcinoma: a systematic review and meta-analysis

We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the clinical values, including clinicopathology, prognosis, and diagnosis of different long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). A total of 14 eligible studies, including 10 on clinicopathological features, 11 on p...

Description
Summary:We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the clinical values, including clinicopathology, prognosis, and diagnosis of different long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). A total of 14 eligible studies, including 10 on clinicopathological features, 11 on prognosis, and 3 on diagnosis were identified. Results revealed that metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1(MALAT1) expression was associated with tumor stage (odds ratio [OR], 3.46; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.63-7.36; p=0.001). The high expression of MALAT1 could be considered a biomarker of the early detection of lymph node metastasis and predictor of poor survival in RCC patients, who likely manifested short overall survival (OS; hazard ratio [HR], 2.97; 95% CI, 1.68-5.28; p
