SATB1 and colorectal carcinoma: Furthermore, in our study, we found that CRC patients with high SATB1 expression tended to have shorter OS (pooled HR: 1.64, 95% CI: 1.04–2.57, P < 0.001), however, in Zhang's study, although a trend of increased mortality for SATB1 overexpression in CRC patients with combined HR 1.55 was found, it was not statistically significant (95% CI: 0.97–2.49, P = 0.07).
