Use the online tool GEPIA2 (http://gepia2.cancer-pku.cn/#index) to check the expression level of CIRBP; it was found that the expression of CIRBP in pancreatic cancer tissues was slightly lower than that in normal tissues (the difference is not significant; Figures 1(a) and 1(b)), and the survival curve analysis showed that the high expression of CIRBP was beneficial to survival (the difference was statistically significant; Figure 1(c)). Here, CIRBP is linked to pancreatic neoplasm.
