Abstract
BackgroundThis paper aimed to analyze IncRNA SOX2-OT expression in patients with carotid atherosclerosis and to elucidate the predictive significance of SOX2-OT on carotid atherosclerosis.MethodsThe levels of SOX2-OT from 185 participants were tested. The relationship between CIMT levels and SOX2-OT expression was examined by Pearson analysis. The clinical value of SOX2-OT was investigated by the ROC curve, K–M curve, and COX regression analysis. The comparison of SOX2-OT expression between patients with good prognosis and poor prognosis was also performed.ResultsThe expression of SOX2-OT was augmented in the patients with carotid atherosclerosis and was correlated with the level of CIMT. The high level of SOX2-OT might be a risk factor for carotid atherosclerosis. An enhancement of SOX2-OT expression was found in patients with poor prognosis. SOX2-OT might be an independent prognostic biomarker.ConclusionsSOX2-OT was upregulated in patients with carotid atherosclerosis and might be a predictive indicator in the progression of carotid atherosclerosis.
