Prognostic value of miR-21 in colorectal cancer, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma: updated systematic review and meta-analysis
Elevated miR-21 expression levels are associated with poorer OS and DFS in patients with CRC, pancreatic cancer, and esophageal cancer. However, due to heterogeneity in the results, further large-sample, high-quality studies are needed to validate these findings.
