Prognostic value of plasma microRNAs for non-small cell lung cancer based on data mining models.

The results showed that the high expression level of miR-20a and miR-197, the low expression level of miR-145 and miR-30a were strongly associated with poorer prognosis in NSCLC patients, and the DT C5.0 model may serve as a novel, accurate, method for predicting prognosis of NSCLC.
