CDH2 and cervical cancer: Among eight EMT hub genes; CDH2 (N-cadherin) showed a significant association with overall survival (p = 0.0017, HR = 2.1), and FN1 (fibronectin) was notably linked with disease-free survival (p = 0.043, HR = 1.8) (Supplementary Fig. 1), indicating their prognostic importance in cervical cancer.
