CircRNAs as potential biomarkers for the clinicopathology and prognosis of glioma patients: a meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

An increasing number of studies have reported circular RNAs (circRNAs) as new potential biomarkers for the prognosis of gliomas. However, the overall prognostic value of circRNAs for glioma remains unclear. Therefore, this study is the first comprehensive evaluation of the clinicopathological and prognostic value of dysregulated circRNAs in the treatment of glioma patients.

Methods

We systematically reviewed the online databases of PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library to identify studies that explored the relationship between circRNA expression and clinicopathological and prognostic factors in glioma through April 11, 2020. The quality of the included studies was evaluated by the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) checklists. Clinicopathological features
