nameUrothelial carcinoma recurrence score Urine Molecular genetics method
descriptionAn overall score for the probability of recurrence of urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (UCB) based on the presence of urine-based tumor markers in urine specimens by molecular genetic methods. Testing is performed for the diagnosis and surveillance of bladder cancer patients. Various non-invasive molecular assays exist for the detection of UC. Results may include an overall genetic expression score as well as a score for the recurrence of UC (this term). The submitter's test score ranges from 0-10 where a score of <3.5 is 'low probability of recurrent UC' and a score > or = 3.5 means 'clinician-directed protocol to determine the presence of recurrent UC, is warranted.[PMID: 27986532][PMID: 31028363]

propertyScore
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemUrine
scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256
methodMolgen  =  Molecular Genetics:  General class of methods used to detect genetic attributes on a molecular basis including RFL, PCR and other methods.
