Across TCGA pan-cancer cohorts, SMIM34B RNA is linked to patient survival in 6 of 34 cancer types, making it the most broadly survival-associated SMIM34B data layer.
The strongest signal is observed in bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA), where higher SMIM34B RNA is associated with worse disease-free survival. In most high-consensus cancer types, elevated SMIM34B expression acts as an unfavorable survival marker, although some lineages such as ESCA show a favorable association.
BLCA, UCEC, and MESO are the cancer types where SMIM34B RNA most reproducibly stratifies survival.
RNA survival associations by lineage
Ranked by sampling consensus. AUC1 and AUC2 indicate survival in the high- and low-expression groups, respectively; the lower AUC marks the poorer-surviving group. p-values are from the log-rank test.
