The components of the IL-6/JAK/STAT3 pathway and miR-218 host genes correlate with prognosis in lung cancer patients. a Kaplan–Meier curves for recurrence free survival were created using the Kaplan–Meier Plotter (www.kmplot.com) with lung cancer patients classified according to high and low SLIT2 (a), SLIT3 (b), IL-6 (c), IL-6R (d), JAK3 (e) and STAT3 (f) gene expression. Hazard ratio (with 95% confidence interval) and log-rank p values were calculated
