Popis: Background: Gastric cancer, characterized by insidious onset and multiple metastasis, is almost incurable and has poor prognosis, and also one of the leading causes of treatment failure and death in patients with gastric cancer (GC). However, the prognosis of collagen type V alpha2 chain (COL5A2) in GC and renal metastasis is unknown. Methods: Recruited 148 patients who underwent GC. The diagnosis of GC was confirmed by ultrasound imaging and pathological examination. Immunohistochemistry and RT-qPCR were performed to exam the expression level of COL5A2. The statistical methods included Pearson chi-square test, Spearman-rho correlation test, univariate and multivariate cox regression analysis. Finally, this research constructed receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and applied the area under the curve (AUC). Results: Based on Pearson's chi-square test, Spearman-rho test, and univariate/multivariate cox regression, pathologic grade (P
