Multivariate analysis of prognostic parameters in patients with colorectal cancer by Cox regression analysis

Variable	Group	HR	CI (95%)	P-Value
Age	<60	0.607	0.298–1.236	0.169
	> = 60
Gender	Mail	1.295	0.577–2.908	0.531
	Female
TumorLocation	Rectum	0.833	0.43–1.615	0.589
	Colon
TumorSize	<3	1.572	0.774–3.193	0.211
	> = 3
Lymph Node	No	2.823	1.294–6.162	0.009*
Metastasis	Yes
TNM	I,II	0.887	0.445–1.77	0.734
	III,IV
DistanceMetastasis	No	2.15	1.089–4.246	0.027*
	Yes
LINC01354	Low	2.264	1.106–4.634	0.025*
Expression	High

Proportional hazards method analysis showed a positive, independent prognostic importance of Lymph Node Metastasis (P = 0.012) and LINC01354 expression (P = 0.023). *P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant
