CD44v6 is associated with tumor aggressiveness and chemoresistance in bladder cancer.
Article in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Bladder cancer is a fast-moving and recurrent malignancy where survival hinges on early detection and precise risk stratification. The search for robust biomarkers is urgent, and CD44v6 has emerged as a compelling candidate. In this study, we explored the clinical and functional associations of CD44v6 expression in bladder cancer. Integrated analyses of patient samples and cell lines showed that high CD44v6 expression is strongly associated with poor patient outcomes, enhanced migratory and invasive behavior, and increased resistance to cisplatin. These results suggest that CD44v6 may serve as a prognostic biomarker and a potential therapeutic target in bladder cancer. Overall, our findings highlight the translational relevance of CD44v6 and provide a foundation for future studies aimed at elucidating the mechanistic pathways underlying its role in tumor aggressiveness and chemoresistance.
