Abstract:curve (AUC) was 0.85. Repeated analysis of a second measurement of urine samples provided comparable findings.CONCLUSIONS: This study provides a first evaluation of urinary volatilome in RCC. Urine VOCs profiling by e-nose seems a promising, non-invasive diagnostic tool with high accuracy in discriminating patients from controls. Ease of use, low costs and noninvasive nature makes this test a potential molecular biomarker in early RCC diagnostic settings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
