miR‐1258 expression was down‐regulated in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) tissues. (A) miR‐1258 expression was significantly decreased in OSCC tissues vs corresponding non‐tumour tissues, as determined by RT‐PCR. (B) miR‐1258 expression was negatively associated with OSCC clinical stage. (C) OSCC patients with lower levels of miR‐1258 had shorter overall survival when compared those with higher levels of miR‐1258. (D) Patients with higher miR‐1258 expression had better disease‐free survival rate than those with lower miR‐1258 expression
