Based on the categories that we defined in the afore mentioned methods, the data showed that the low TCEAL7 expression was significantly correlated with female (r = 0.171, P = 0.001), larger tumor size (r = 0.123, P = 0.041), higher histological grade (r = 0.091, P = 0.017) and worse nodal status (r = 0.102, P = 0.029). The gene discussed is TCEAL7; the disease is neoplasm.
