MicroRNA-24 Modulates Aflatoxin B1-Related Hepatocellular Carcinoma Prognosis and Tumorigenesis
Figure 3
Association between survival and miR-24 expression in 207 HCC cases receiving curative treatment. According to the average expression in cancerous tissues, miR-24 expression was divided into two groups: low expression group (relative level ≤ 2) and high expression group (relative level > 2). MiR-24 expression was associated with tumor reoccurrence-free survival (a) and overall survival (b) of HCC. Cumulative hazard function was plotted by Kaplan-Meier’s methodology, and value was calculated with two-sided log-rank tests. Relative hazard ratio (HR) and corresponding 95% CI of high miR-24 expression (compared with low expression) was calculated using multivariable cox regression model (including all significant variables).
