Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Early diagnosis of Ewing sarcoma (ES) is critical for improving patient prognosis. However, the accurate diagnosis of ES remains challenging, underscoring the need for novel diagnostic biomarkers to enhance diagnostic precision and reliability. This study aimed to identify potential gene expression-based biomarkers for the diagnosis of ES.
