Background: Mounting evidence from recent studies has revealed the association of lncRNA PANDAR expression levels with outcomes in several types of cancer. However, inconsistent results have also been reported, which rationalized a meta-analysis of available data to analyze the prognostic value of lncRNA PANDAR.
Methods: From inception to May 26, 2018, electronic literature databases including PubMed (medline), the Cochrane Library, ScienceDirect, Springer, ISI Web of Knowledge, Wiley Online library, BioMed Central, and Embase were searched for literature collections. The hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were utilized to calculate pooled effect size.
Results: A total of 1,132 cancer patients were enrolled in the present meta-analysis to assess the prognostic value of PANDAR in various carcinomas. Promoted PANDAR expression was demonstrated to significantly predict unfavorable OS (HR = 1.77, 95% CI: 1.12 - 2.80, p = 0.014) by the random effects model. According to the stratified analyses and meta-regression results, the heterogeneity of present analysis may be attributed to the differences of cancer resources. Furthermore, over-expression of PANDAR was revealed to be effectively predictive of cancer progression (HR = 1.70, 95% CI: 1.41 - 2.05, p < 0.00001) and LNM (HR = 1.71, 95% CI: 1.39 - 2.10, p < 0.00001).
Conclusions: The present findings indicate that increased PANDAR is associated with poor OS in patients with general carcinomas and may serve as a useful clinical prognostic biomarker.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) remains a global health challenge due to its high morbidity, late-stage diagnosis, and limited therapeutic options. long non-coding RNA PANDAR has been implicated in tumorigenesis across multiple cancers, yet its role in GC pathogenesis and diagnostic utility is still unclear. The purpose of this study is to elucidate the diagnostic value of serum PANDAR and its regulatory mechanisms in GC progression.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and Bladder cancer (BC) are two lethal urological cancers that require diagnosis at their earliest stage causing decreasing survival rates in case of aggressive disease. However, there is no reliable circulating marker in blood or urine for their less or non-invasive diagnosis. Our objective was to review the potential circulating biomarkers, namely proteins, micro-RNA (miRNA), long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), and circulating tumour cells (CTCs) for which we performed a PubMed-based literature search of biomolecules (protein, miRNA, lncRNA and CTCs) found as circulating biomarkers in blood and urine for the early detection of RCC and BC.

Pancreatic cancer (PC) is a lethal complication in the world, affecting around half a million individuals each year. The treatment of PC is relatively difficult due to the difficulty in making an early diagnosis. Most PC patients are confronted with locally metastatic or advanced diseases in the asymptomatic phase, and about 80% have late diagnosis with metastasis.
