| Abstract | Chemokine receptor CXCR4 has been identified to affect glioma progression by dominating cancer cell survival, proliferation, and migration in vitro recently. However, the implications and utilities of CXCR4 in clinical grade and prognosis were rarely reported. Thus, it is essential to carry out a meta-analysis to draw a convincing conclusion. The relevant articles were included through careful assessment, and then, odds ratios (ORs), standard mean differences (SMDs), and hazard ratios (HRs) with 95 % confidence intervals (95 % CIs) were estimated. Heterogeneity and funnel plots evaluation were conducted. In this meta-analysis, all 13 eligible studies involving 785 patients were included and conducted in China. Ten studies revealed altered CXCR4 expression in glioma tissues was closely associated with high WHO grade (III + IV) (n = 10, OR 5.46, 95 % CI 3.81–7.84; p = 0.000); besides, six studies also demonstrated CXCR4 expression intensity extremely correlated to high grade (n = 6, SMD −2.45, 95 % CI −2.78, −2.12; p = 0.000). Most importantly, three articles identified that CXCR4 expression significantly correlated to 3-year overall survival (OS) (HR 7.32, 95 % CI 4.16–12.90; p = 0.000) in glioma patients. No heterogeneity and publication bias were observed across all studies. Taken together, this meta-analysis suggests CXCR4 expression in gliomas can be recommended as evidence of WHO grade and indeed predict 3-year overall survival. We also provided a scientific rationale for clinically pathological detection of CXCR4 that is required for treatment of glioma patients. |

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.
