The association between ALMS1-IT1 expression and OS or PFI of patients with COAD was evaluated by Kaplan–Meier analysis, which indicated that expression of ALMS1-IT1 is positively correlated with poor OS (P = .005, Fig. 3A) and poor PFI (P = .012, Fig. 3B) of COAD patients. This evidence concerns the gene HAUS3 and colon adenocarcinoma.
