SHMT2 Overexpression Predicts Poor Prognosis in Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma by Shanglei Ning, Siquan Ma, Abdul Qahar Saleh, Lingyu Guo, Zixiao Zhao, Yuxin Chen

“…Furthermore, SHMT2 level was closely associated with tumor T stage (P=0.017) and tumor TNM stage (P=0.041) in patients with iCCA, but not with age, gender, tumor size, tumor number, pathological grade, vascular invasion, or N stage. Moreover, Kaplan-Meier analysis suggested that patients with lower SHMT2 level have longer survival rate than those with high expression (45.8 vs 23.1%, P=0.030). …”
