Association between visceral adiposity and DDX11 as a predictor of aggressiveness of small clear-cell renal-cell carcinoma: a prospective clinical trial

ConclusionsThe results obtained herein will aid in inferring the aggressiveness of small ccRCCs, represented by ISUP nuclear grade, in clinical practice. Our findings indicated thatDDX11 and visceral fat play active roles in small ccRCC. These roles should be examined in future studies for the possible use ofDDX11 and visceral fat as prognostic biomarkers in the treatment of patients with ccRCC.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov,NCT03694912, Registered 3 October 2018.
