Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The study aims to study alterations of MTDH gene expression in the serum of bladder cancer patients compared to control group to evaluate its role as a marker for diagnosis. ,to compare the diagnostic accuracy of MTDH with the previously used marker Bladder Cancer-Specific Antigen-1 (BLCA-1 in the serum of bladder cancer patients . and to study correlation between expression of the metadherin gene and serum level of BLCA-1, and clinical and histopathological staging in patients with bladder cancer
