A risk assessment model for the prognosis of osteosarcoma utilizing differentially expressed lncRNAs.

ABSTRACT: The present study was conducted to establish a risk assessment model for evaluating osteosarcoma prognosis based on prognosis-associated long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression. Human osteosarcoma expression profiles were obtained from the NCBI GEO and EBI ArrayExpress databases and differently expressed lncRNAs between good and poor prognosis groups were evaluated using Student's t-test and Wilcoxon rank test in R (v. 3.1.0). A multivariate Cox regression was used to establish a risk assessment system based on lncRNA expression levels, with the associated regression coefficients used as the weight. Survival analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed to verify the accuracy of the risk assessment model. Associations between the prognosis, risk assessment mo
