  1. Note: Uni- and multivariate analysis were conducted to evaluate HR of RRM2 (high vs. low).
  2. *For multivariate analysis, HR was adjusted by age, ER status, Elston Grade in the Desmedt set; In the Chin and Ivshina data sets, HR was adjusted by age. In the Pawitan set, it was adjusted by Elston grade, ER and HER2 status. For the Wang set, HR was adjusted by ER status. The NKI set was adjusted by age and grade.
  3. #The meta analysis was conducted unsing Comprehensive Meta-Analysis V2 software with a Fixed –effect model.
  4. †Statistical significance, P < 0.05; ‡Statistical significance, P < 0.01.
