Identification of an Immune-Related Gene Signature to Improve Prognosis Prediction in Colorectal Cancer Patients.

abstract：:Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Western societies. It is now well established that microRNAs (miRNAs) are determinant regulators in various medical conditions including cardiovascular diseases. The recent discovery that miRNAs, while associated with different carriers, can be ...
