Expression of CSTF2 in oral squamous cell carcinoma and its relationship with immune infiltration and poor prognosis by Zumulaiti Aierken, Muertiza Muhetaer, Zhang Lei, Ainiwaerjiang Abudourousuli, Ainiwaerjiang Abudourousuli

“…The relationship between the infiltration of various immune cells and CSTF2 expression levels was assessed using single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA). Ultimately, the prognostic significance of CSTF2 was evaluated through Kaplan–Meier survival analysis, in conjunction with univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, as well as receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.ResultsHigh CSTF2 expression was observed in OSCC and associated with unfavorable clinicopathological variables, including histological grade and lymphnode neck dissection. …”
