Evaluation of Prognostic and Predictive Significance of Circulating MicroRNAs in Ovarian Cancer Patients

Table 3

Cox regression analysis shows the variables significantly associated with prognosis. Variables not significant are left out of the final model except from miR-1274A and miR-141. In the full model, the variables including age, FIGO stage, grade, residual disease, and type of treatment were included in addition to the 4 microRNAs.
