Background:The prognostic value of SPRY4-Intronic transcript 1 (SPRY4-IT1) in women suffering from breast carcinoma and malignant tumors of the reproductive system remains to be ascertained. Therefore, this paper attempted to assess the relationship between SPRY4-IT1 with the clinicopathological indicators and survival analysis in women suffering from breast carcinoma and malignant tumors of their reproductive organs through meta-analysis.Method:Related literature retrieved from Cochrane Library, Ovid, Embase, PubMed, the CNKI, and the Web of Science databases were reviewed. The latest article search was updated to September 1, 2021. The outcome indicators included as effective measures in the study were hazard ratio (HR), odds ratio (OR), and 95% confidence interval (CI). The Stata 12.0 software was used to analyze the data.Results:The elevated SPRY4-IT1 levels were indicative of poor overall survival (OS) [HR = 2.44, 95% CI = 1.35–4.43, P < .05], and were not related to Disease-Free Survival (DFS) [HR = 1.61, 95% CI = 0.50–5.18, P = .43] in female patients suffering from malignant tumors. In terms of lymph node metastasis (LNM) for the association between long noncoding RNA SPRY4-IT1(LncRNA SPRY4-IT1) and OS, elevated LncRNA SPRY4-IT1 implied poor OS with LNM [HR = 2.79, 95% CI: 1.81–4.28, P < .001]. Based on the aspect of the LNM for the association between LncRNA SPRY4-IT1 and DFS, SPRY4-IT1 was not correlated with DFS [HR = 0.97, 95% CI: 0.73–1.28, P = .81]. SPRY4-IT1 in the TNM stage was not related to OS [HR = 1.43, 95% CI: 0.55–3.70, P = .46]. In the TNM stage, SPRY4-IT1 was not related to DFS [HR = 1.68, 95% CI: 0.92–3.06, P = .09]. SPRY4-IT1 was found to be associated with lymph node metastasis (OR = 4.15, 95% CI: 2.75–6.25, P = .000) and TNM stage (OR = 2.89, 95% CI: 1.51–7.27 P = .02). No significant correlation was noted between SPRY4-IT1 and the age of the patients (OR = 0.89, 95% CI: 0.61–1.29 P = .54).Conclusions:Thus, this study provides evidence-based medical evidence for the target treatment of female breast carcinoma and malignant tumors of the reproductive system. The elevated level of SPRY4-IT1 was associated with poor prognosis of female breast cancer patients and of those having malignant tumors in their reproductive organs. In addition, the SPRY4-IT1 expression was also associated with the disease progression and metastasis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
