Of 265 patients with gynecologic carcinoma undergoing initial evaluation during a 5-year period 238 were staged prospectively with procedures that included cystoscopy. Endometrial carcinoma was noted in 98 patients, none of whom had evidence of bladder extension nor did the clinical stage of disease change after cystoscopy. Of 120 patients with carcinoma of the cervix 7 were found to have extension of tumor to the bladder. The clinical stage was elevated in 3 of these cases but remained unchanged in 4 because of the cytoscopic findings. Of all 238 patients with gynecologic carcinoma 3 (1 per cent) also were found to have unsuspected low grade transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder.

Non-coding RNAs occupy a significant fraction of the human genome. Their biological significance is backed up by a plethora of emerging evidence. One of the most robust approaches to demonstrate non-coding RNA's biological relevance is through their prognostic value. Using the rich gene expression data from The Cancer Genome Altas (TCGA), we designed Advanced Expression Survival Analysis (AESA), a web tool which provides several novel survival analysis approaches not offered by previous tools. In addition to the common single-gene approach, AESA computes the gene expression composite score of a set of genes for survival analysis and utilizes permutation test or cross-validation to assess the significance of log-rank statistic and the degree of over-fitting. AESA offers survival feature selection with post-selection inference and utilizes expanded TCGA clinical data including overall, disease-specific, disease-free, and progression-free survival information. Users can analyse either protein-coding or non-coding regions of the transcriptome. We demonstrated the effectiveness of AESA using several empirical examples. Our analyses showed that non-coding RNAs perform as well as messenger RNAs in predicting survival of cancer patients. These results reinforce the potential prognostic value of non-coding RNAs. AESA is developed as a module in the freely accessible analysis suite MutEx.
