Identification of Selected Genes Associated With the Prediction of Prognosis in Bladder Cancer.
Article in Combinatorial chemistry & high throughput screening, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundBladder cancer (BC) is one of the most common urological malignancies, ranking as the eleventh most common cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The lack of specific and sensitive prognostic biomarkers presents a significant challenge in the early diagnosis and treatment of BC.
methodsThis study utilizes the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) dataset GSE13507 and the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database to screen differentially expressed genes related to BC. By using Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA), two modules associated with BC were investigated in GSE13507 and TCGA. Hub genes were identified through Protein- Protein Interaction (PPI) network analysis, and their functions were validated through multiple approaches, including Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA), Western Blotting (WB) assay, Human Protein Atlas (HPA), Oncomine analysis, and quantitative Real-Time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis. Additionally, miRNAs associated with hub gene expression were identified using various databases to predict the progression and prognosis of BC.
resultsWGCNA and a differential gene expression analysis identified 171 common genes as target genes. Ten genes (MYH11, ACTA2, TPM2, ACTG2, CALD1, MYL9, TPM1, MYLK, SORBS1, and LMOD1) were identified using the PPI tool. The CALD1 and MYLK genes showed a significant prognostic value for overall survival and disease-free survival in patients with BC. CALD1 and MYLK expression levels were significantly lower in BC tissues than in normal tissues. Furthermore, miR-155 showed a significant positive correlation with MYLK.
conclusionThis study established MYLK as a direct target gene of miR-155, functioning as an actionable survival-related gene correlated with BC development.
