  1. A and B: The four and 11 miRNAs from Table 1A and B respectively were used to construct risk scores. Receiver Operating Characteristics Curve was used to dichotomize cases into low and high-risk groups. Univariate Cox proportional hazards regression model was run for risk score and for other clinical parameters. In the multivariate analysis, risk score was significant with p < 0.05 after adjusting for confounders.
