Clinical value of prognosis gene expression signatures in colorectal cancer: a systematic review.
<h4>Introduction</h4>The traditional staging system is inadequate to identify those patients with stage II colorectal cancer (CRC) at high risk of recurrence or with stage III CRC at low risk. A number of gene expression signatures to predict CRC prognosis have been proposed, but none is...
