Table 1 Correlation between the clinicopathologic characteristics and lncRNA AGAP2-AS1 and miR-16-5p expression in HCC (n = 137)

From: RETRACTED ARTICLE: Long non-coding RNA AGAP2-AS1, functioning as a competitive endogenous RNA, upregulates ANXA11 expression by sponging miR-16-5p and promotes proliferation and metastasis in hepatocellular carcinoma
