Receiver operating characteristic curves for preoperative and postoperative cytokeratin 19 and carcinoembryonic antigen mRNA levels in patients with gastric cardia cancer according to overall survival. A: Preoperative CK19 mRNA level; B: Postoperative CK19 mRNA level; C: Preoperative CEA mRNA level; D: Postoperative CEA mRNA level. AUC: Area under the curve; CK19: Cytokeratin 19; CEA: Carcinoembryonic antigen; ROC: Receiver operating characteristic.
