A study has demonstrated that the combination of UCA1, HOX transcript antisense intergenic RNA, hydatidiform mole associated and imprinted and metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 can distinguish between patients with bladder cancer and patients with urocystitis, with a sensitivity and specificity of 95.7% and 94.3%, respectively (121). This evidence concerns the gene UCA1 and urinary bladder cancer.
