Aberrant over-expression and poor prognosis of PAQR5 in HCC. A, B The PAQR5 mRNA expression of paired HCC samples and unpaired HCC samples in TCGA-LIHC cohort. C, D The validation of PAQR5 mRNA expression of HCC samples in GSE39791 cohort and TCGA-GTEx cohort. E, F, G Survival differences between high and low PAQR5 expression groups. Overall survival (OS), progression-free interval (PFI), and disease-specific survival (DSS). H Association between HCC Stage and PAQR5 expression. I PAQR5 as independent prognostic factors for HCC patients in Cox regression analysis. HR, hazard ratio. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001
