Telomere maintenance-related genes are important for survival prediction and subtype identification in bladder cancer.

ABSTRACT: Background: Bladder cancer ranks among the top three in the urology field for both morbidity and mortality. Telomere maintenance-related genes are closely related to the development and progression of bladder cancer, and approximately 60%-80% of mutated telomere maintenance genes can usually be found in patients with bladder cancer. Methods: Telomere maintenance-related gene expression profiles were obtained through limma R packages. Of the 359 differential genes screened, 17 prognostically relevant ones were obtained by univariate independent prognostic analysis, and then analysed by LASSO regression. The best result was selected to output the model formula, and 11 model-related genes were obtained. The TCGA cohort was used as the internal group and the GEO dataset as the ex
