  1. Univariate analysis showed that tumor size, T stage, N stage, differentiation degree, TNM stage, both serum and tissue IQGAP3, B7-H4 and COX-2 levels and serum CEA and CA19-9 levels were significant prognostic factors for CRC. However, based on multivariate analysis, tumor size was not statistically significant as a prognostic risk factor
