The outcomes (Table 2) reflected that SATB2-AS1 expression was related to tumor diameter (P = 0.003), LNM (P = 0.002), TNM stage (P = 0.008) and estrogen receptor (P = 0.029) and progesterone receptor (P = 0.018), while was not related to age (P = 0.379), menopausal status (P = 0.862), histological grade (P = 0.138) and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) status (P = 0.337) (Fig. 1i–l). Here, PGR is linked to neoplasm.
