Finally, univariate Cox analysis was performed for OS of patients, and the results showed that the gender, tumor differentiation, size of residual tumor, tumor staging, distant metastasis, lymph node metastasis and ERICH3-AS1 expression level were risk factors of prognosis; then multivariable Cox analysis was performed, and it was obtained that the gender, tumor differentiation, size of residual tumor, tumor staging and ERICH3-AS1 expression level were independent risk factors of prognosis (Table 3). Here, ERICH3 is linked to neoplasm.
