Ureteral urothelial carcinoma is a common urinary system tumor, accounting for 40% to 60% of all ureteral diseases. This study attempted to analyze the prognosis of patients with urothelial carcinoma, judging ureteral urothelial carcinoma by genes and biomarkers of inflammatory response. In this paper, co-expression network analysis and gene-based image fusion evaluation methods were proposed to obtain the prognosis results of patients with ureteral urothelial carcinoma. The experimental results showed that the levels of PLR and NLR increased, and the levels of HGB and HCT decreased; high PLR and high NLR levels, low HGB and low HCT levels were all risk factors affecting bladder urothelial carcinoma, and their ratios (OR) were 1.023, 1.611, 0.961, 0.859, 1.015, 1.072, 0.979, and 0.951, respectively. However, high PLR and high NLR levels were independent risk factors for bladder urothelial carcinoma, and their OR values were 1.497 and 1.071, respectively. Through biomarker diagnosis, the area under the curve, sensitivity, specificity and Youden index of hsa-mir-17, hsa-mir-93, hsa-mir-429 and hsa-mir-20a all exceeded 0.9, indicating that this is a potential diagnostic indicators. All in all, during the treatment of ureteral cancer, in order to reduce tumor recurrence, systemic therapy should be combined with ureteral cancer. In addition, this study also analyzed the prognosis of chemotherapy patients, and the results showed that immunotherapy may increase the risk of tumor cell reperfusion during chemotherapy.
