Schematic flow diagram of study rationale to investigate the circadian rhythm control microRNAs with colorectal cancer treatment outcome. Known connections between circadian rhythm and chemosensitivity, as well as validated microRNA-mRNA targets, are shown in solid lines. Highlighted in red is the connections we are trying to investigate in this study namely, that microRNA regulation of circadian rhythm-related genes influences chemosensitivity and patient survival
