ANGPTL4 and metastatic malignant neoplasm in the lymph nodes: Serum ANGPTL4 level was associated with vascular invasion and lymph node metastasis (p = 0.0004 and p = 0.006), so that it differentiated CCA with vascular invasion from CCA without vascular invasion (cutoff = 0.5526 AU, 64.9% sensitivity, 92.9% specificity, AUC = 0.751, p = 0.006) and it corresponded to CCA with/without lymph node metastasis (cutoff = 0.5399 AU, 71.4% sensitivity, 70.8% specificity, AUC = 0.691, p = 0.01) by ROC analysis.
