To examine the link between BPTF and the clinicopathological characteristics of patients with GC, the data of 541 patients with GC (mean age ± SD, 65.2 ± 9.3 years; 49.7% patients with early‐stage [I, II] GC and 50.3% with late‐stage [III, IV] GC) were extracted from two independent cohorts (TCGA‐STAD cohort, n = 380; Ruijin cohort, n = 161) (Table S1, Supporting Information). The gene discussed is BPTF; the disease is gastric cancer.
