Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Recently, many studies have been carried out to investigate the clinicopathological significance of E-cadherin expression in thyroid cancer. However, the results remained inconsistent. In the present study, we performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the associations of E-cadherin expression with susceptibility and clinicopathological characteristics of thyroid cancer. METHODS:Eligible studies were searched from Medicine, Embase, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Wanfang databases. The strength of associations between E-cadherin expression and susceptibility and clinicopathological features of thyroid cancer were assessed by pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS:Forty-six studies with 1700 controls and 2298 thyroid cancer patients were included for this meta-analysis. Pooled results indicated that E-cadherin expression was significantly associated with susceptibility of papillary cancer and follicular cancer (papillary cancer, ORs = 14.31, 95% CIs = 3.42-59.90; follicular cancer, ORs = 10.14, 95% CI = 4.52-22.75). Significant association between E-cadherin expression and thyroid cancer risk was also observed in the subgroup analysis based on control group (normal thyroid tissue, ORs = 28.28, 95% CI = 8.36-95.63; adjacent thyroid tissue, ORs = 8.83, 95% CI = 3.27-23.85; benign thyroid tissue, ORs = 43.96, 95% CI = 9.91-194.95). In addition, E-cadherin expression was significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis, differentiation, and tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage of thyroid cancer (lymph node metastasis, ORs = 3.21, 95% CI = 1.98-5.20; differentiation, ORs = 0.25, 95% CI = 0.07-0.82; TNM stage, ORs = 4.85, 95% CI = 2.86-8.25). CONCLUSIONS:The present study showed that E-cadherin expression was significantly associated with susceptibility and clinicopathological characteristics of thyroid cancer, which suggested that E-cadherin expression might be a potential predictive factor for clinical progression of thyroid cancer.
