TMVD was able to distinguish between patients with high and low MVD in terms of survival, thus TMVD was better compared with MVD alone at distinguishing between patients with different survival prognoses. TCGA data analysis revealed that among the VM-associated genes, nodal growth differentiation factor, caspase-3, matrix metalloproteinase-9 and galectin-3 had a statistically significant impact on the overall/disease-free survival of patients with RCC. In conclusion, the TMVD concept may be more appropriate and sensitive compared with the MVD or VM alone in predicting tumor aggressiveness and patient survival, particularly in RCC, which is a highly vascularized, VM-rich neoplasm, and certain VM formation-associated genes are negatively associated with the survival of patients with RCC.The present study aimed to investigate the expression levels and clinical value of miR-365 and miR-25 in serum of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients (180) diagnosed with NSCLC at the Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University from July 2011 to December 2013 were used as the experimental group. Volunteers (90) undergoing health examinations were used as the control group. The serum of the patients was collected after fasting in the morning. The expression levels of miR-365 and miR-25 in the serum of patients was assessed by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), and the relationship among miR-365, miR-25 and the postoperative survival rate of NSCLC patients was analyzed. The relative expression level of miR-25 of patients with peripheral infiltration was significantly higher than that of patients without peripheral infiltration (P less then 0.05). There were significant differences in the relative expression level of miR-25 in different pathological grades and TNM stages, as wel metastasis. Moreover, it was revealed that miR-25 and miR-365 affected the 5-year surv
