Abstract Background ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is one of the leading causes of fatal cardiovascular diseases, which have been the prime cause of mortality worldwide. Diagnosis in the early phase would benefit clinical intervention and prognosis, but the exploration of the biomarkers of STEMI is still lacking. Objectives In this study, we conducted a bioinformatics analysis to identify potential crucial biomarkers in the progress of STEMI. Methods We obtained GSE59867 for STEMI and stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) patients. […]

Abstract Background Despite increasing evidence that patients with heart failure (HF) are susceptible to sarcopenia, the reason for the association is not well understood. Objective The purpose of this study is to explore further the molecular mechanism of the occurrence of this complication. Methods Gene expression datasets for HF (GSE57345) and Sarcopenia (GSE1428) were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified using ‘edgeR’ and “limma” packages of R, and their functions were analyzed […]
