  1. Urinary EVs from 13 bladder cancer patients were assessed with a cytokine antibody array. Tenascin C expression in corresponding uninvolved lymph nodes was assessed by IHC. Correlation is given as the Spearman coefficient (rs) and the associated probability value (P). P-values were corrected for multiple comparisons using the Benjamini–Hochberg procedure.
