Prognostic and clinical value of Targeting protein for Xenopus kinesin-like protein 2 in patients with gastrointestinal tract cancers: A meta-analysis

This study was aimed to comprehensively explore the prognostic and clinical significance of TPX2 in GI tract cancers. Methods: Eligible studies were systematically retrieved in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Wanfang database. The eligible studies were collected to evaluate the association of TPX2 with prognosis and clinicopathological features, with the pooling hazard ratio (HR) and odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI). Result: The meta-analysis suggested that overexpression of TPX2 protein was significantly correlated with poor overall survival (OS) (HR: 2.20, 95% CI: 1.60ā€“2.80, Pā€Š
