Abstract: -value = 0.030). The odds of low expression in epithelial cells for a positive lymph node are 3.21 times as great as the odds of low expression in epithelial cells for a negative lymph node. Our findings recommend p-AMPK as a useful biomarker in determining the prognosis of bladder cancer. These preliminary findings suggest that p-AMPK may be a valuable tissue biomarker for predicting a poor prognosis in bladder cancer.
