Pooled results from published clinical studies showed SPARCL1 expression was associated with differentiation (OR = 1.89, 95% CI: 1.38-2.59), tumor stage (OR = 0.47, 95% CI: 0.29-0.77), distant metastasis (OR = 0.53, 95% CI: 0.33-0.84), and overall survival (HR = 0.56, 95% CI: 0.43-0.74). The gene discussed is SPARCL1; the disease is neoplasm.
