NEAT1 and neoplasm: The clinicopathological parameters analysis further showed that increased expression level of NEAT1 was positively correlated with larger tumor size (odds ratio (OR) = 1.74, 95% CI = 1.26–2.41), lymph node metastasis (OR = 2.29, 95% CI = 1.71–3.06), advanced TNM stage (OR = 3.60, 95% CI = 2.27–5.72), poor tumor differentiation (OR = 2.16, 95% CI = 1.58–2.93), distant metastasis (OR = 3.51, 95% CI = 1.75–7.01), and invasion depth (OR = 1.94, 95% CI = 1.36–2.75).
