Introduction: Numerous studies showed that the Flot-2 protein expression was significantly elevated in cancerous tissues and Flot-2 played pivotal roles in the development and progression of cancers. Increased expression of Flot-2 was correlated to a poor prognosis in cancer patients.

Evidence Acquisition: Eligible literatures were collected by retrieving multiple databases, including PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, CNKI and Wanfang database.

Introduction: Many studies recently suggested that Zinc-finger protein X-linked (ZFX) acted as a novel oncoprotein in various malignancies. It was frequently overexpressed in cancerous tissues and the high expression of ZFX may have important clinical value. This meta-analysis aims to investigate the prognostic value of ZFX as a biomarker of solid cancers.

Introduction: A number of studies in gastric carcinoma have demonstrated that cancerous tissues have a significant higher HOTAIR level than that in noncancerous tissues. Overexpression of HOTAIR is associated with the development in gastric cancer.

Evidence Acquisition: We collected all relevant articles and explored the association of HOTAIR expression with clinicopathological features and prognosis in patients with gastric cancer.

Background: Numerous studies have found that the expression levels of long noncoding RNA PVT1 (lncRNA PVT1) were elevated in cancerous tissue, which was significantly higher than those in adjacent noncancerous tissues or corresponding normal tissues. Overexpression of lncRNA PVT1 was correlated with lymph node metastasis and a poor prognosis in various cancers.

Methods: This quantitative meta-analysis collected all relevant articles and explored the association of lncRNA PVT1 expression levels with lymph node metastasis and prognosis.
