| Abstract | MiR-200c expression is dysregulated in various malignancies and may predict the survival of patients with cancer, although the results of different studies conflict. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to resolve this discrepancy. We queried the PubMed and Embase using multiple search strategies. Data were extracted from studies comparing overall survival and progression-free survival in patients with cancer with high and low levels of miR-200c expression. Fixed and random models were used where appropriate. A combined hazards ratio (HR) was calculated to estimate the association of high levels of miR-200c with survival. We selected 16 studies of 1485 participants for our final meta-analysis. Upregulated expression of miR-200c predicted significantly worse overall survival in patients with cancer (HR 1.51; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.06-2.16, P = 0.023). Subgroup analysis indicated that high levels of miR-200c was associated with decreased survival of Caucasians and patients with gynecological tumors with pooled HR values of 1.82 (95% CI 1.27-2.26, P = 0.01) and 3.23 (95% CI 1.11-9.38, P = 0.032), respectively. Because of the absence of apparent heterogeneity, the combined HRs were 1.69 (95% CI 1.24-2.30, P = 0.001) for squamous cell carcinoma and 1.91 (95% CI 1.40-2.59, P < 0.001) for samples from peripheral blood. Increased expression of miR-200c significantly associated with shorter progression-free survival of patients with cancer (HR 2.37; 95% CI 1.47-3.81, P < 0.001). Our meta-analysis indicates that the level of miR-200c expression predicted survival of patients with cancer, particularly for Caucasians and patients with gynecological cancer. Increased expression of miR-200c predicted shorter survival of patients with squamous cell carcinomas. Our findings indicate that monitoring the levels of miR-200c in blood may be useful for following tumor progression as well as patients’ prognosis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
