Popis: | Background: Several long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are abnormally expressed in prostate cancer (PCa), suggesting that they could serve as novel prognostic markers. The current meta-analysis was undertaken to better define the prognostic value of various lncRNAs in PCa. Methods: The PubMed, Embase, Medline, and Cochrane Library databases were systematically searched up to February 19, 2017, to retrieve eligible articles. Outcomes analyzed were biochemical recurrence-free survival (BRFS), overall survival (OS), metastasis-free survival (MFS), and prostate cancer-specific survival (PCSS). Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) were calculated using fixed-effects or random-effects models. Results: A total of 10 studies, evaluating 11 PCa-related lncRNAs, were included in the meta-analysis. Pooled results indicate that the abnormal expression of candidate lncRNAs in PCa samples predicted poor BRFS (HR: 1.67, 95%CI: 1.37–2.04, P |
