Table 1.
Association between LINC01578 and clinicopathological characteristics of colon cancer. P value was calculated by chi‐square test. MMR, mismatch repair; MSS, microsatellite stability; pM, pathological staging of metastasis; pN, pathological staging of lymph node; pT, pathological staging of tumor.
