Abstract
AIM Notch1 expression remains controversial on digestive tract cancers. This meta-analysis was performed to assess the clinicopathological significance of Notch1 expression in individuals with digestive tract cancers, mainly involving esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), gastric cancer (GC), pancreatic cancer (PC) and colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS Available articles were searched from the online databases, and the meta-analysis was done using Review Manager software 5.3. RESULTS 35 studies were included in this analysis (6187 samples). Notch1 is downregulated in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (p < 0.00001), Notch1 expression at high levels was detected in GC (p = 0.02) and CRC (p < 0.001), and no significant difference exists between PC and normal tissue (p = 0.76). CONCLUSION Notch1 overexpression in GC and CRC suggested aggressive biological behaviors, and Notch1 may be a biomarker in digestive tract cancers.

Abstract
AIM This meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the clinicopathological significance of Notch1 expression in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS Available articles were searched from diverse databases, and the meta-analysis was done by using Stata 12.0 software. RESULTS Thirteen studies were included in this analysis (3401 samples). The Notch1 expression in CRC tissues was significantly higher than that in normal tissues statistically (OR: 15.46; 95% CI: 8.11-29.45; p = 0.003), and were associated with lymph node metastasis, tumor stage, depth of infiltration and histological differentiation. DISCUSSION There is a close relationship between higher Notch1 expression in CRC. Notch1 may be involved in tumor progression, invasion and metastasis with CRC. CONCLUSION Notch1 overexpression in CRC suggested aggressive biological behaviors and thus implying that Notch1 may be a useful biomarker in CRCs.
