In univariate Cox regression analysis, expression of TIPRL was correlated with OS and DFS in gastric cancer after curative resection [OS: HR = 0.512, CI (95%): 0.288–0.910, P = 0.023; DFS: HR = 0.473, CI (95%): 0.240–0.993, P = 0.031, Table 2]. This evidence concerns the gene TIPRL and gastric cancer.
