Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been extensively studied in many tumors. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the relationship between circRNAs and clinical features, prognosis, and diagnosis of osteosarcoma patients. We mainly included studies about circRNAs expression and osteosarcoma. The odds ratio (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used for clinical features, sensitivity, and specificity, while the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs were used to assess overall survival (OS). A number of 13 articles were included in this study, including 9 about clinical features, 11 about prognosis, and 5 about diagnosis. The results showed that increased circRNAs expression was significantly correlated with adverse clinical characteristics. In terms of prognosis, oncogenic circRNAs had adverse effects on overall survival (OS: HR=2.54; 95%Cl: 2.05-3.03), and increased expression of cancer-suppressor circRNAs prolonged survival (OS: HR=0.42; 95%Cl: 0.210.64). Our study further showed an AUC of 0.85, with an 80% sensitivity and 77% specificity to distinguish osteosarcoma patients from healthy controls. In conclusion, circRNAs may be new promising indicators for prognostic evaluation and early diagnosis of osteosarcoma patients.
