As shown in Table 1, the high level of GATA3-AS1 expression was strongly correlated with larger tumor size (P=0.006), advanced TNM stage (P=0.003), and more lymph node metastasis (P < 0.001) but not correlated with patient's gender (P=0.506), age (P=0.168), differentiation (P=0.372), vascular invasion (P=0.126), and liver cirrhosis (P=0.920). The gene discussed is GATA3; the disease is neoplasm.
