Multivariable analysis using the Cox proportional hazards regression model indicated that Hec1 positive expression was an independent risk factor for both overall survival (HR = 2.79, 95% CI: 1.65–4.05, p = 0.012) and progression-free survival (HR = 1.81, 95% CI: 1.22-3.18, p = 0.002) in cervical cancer patients. The gene discussed is NDC80; the disease is cervical carcinoma.
