Table 2 Meta-analyses for the association of Twist expression with survival of esophageal cancer

Meta-analysis	Endpoints	HR (95%CI)	Heterogeneity test (I²)	P value	Number of studies
TWIST (+) vs TWIST (−)	OS	1.88 (1.32-2.69)^a	68.6%	0.000	11
TWIST (+) vs TWIST (−)	DFS/RFS/PFS	1.84 (1.12-3.02)^a	67.1%	0.028	4
Method of quantification	Multiply percentage score and intensity score	1.52 (0.87-2.65)	79.5%	0.319	6
	Intensity score	2.72 (1.84-4.03)^a	0.00	0.062	9
	Percentage of stained cells	2.45 (1.43-4.19)^a	68.6%	0.199	4

^aIf I²≥ 50% and/or P < 0.1, random effects models are applied.

HR: Hazard ratio; OS: Overall survival; DFS: Disease-free survival; RFS: Relapse-free survival; PFS: Progression-free survival.
