Identification of co-diagnostic effect genes for aortic dissection and metabolic syndrome by multiple machine learning algorithms.

ABSTRACT: Aortic dissection (AD) is a life-threatening condition in which the inner layer of the aorta tears. It has been reported that metabolic syndrome (MS) has a close linkage with aortic dissection. However, the inter-relational mechanisms between them were still unclear. This article explored the hub gene signatures and potential molecular mechanisms in AD and MS. We obtained five bulk RNA-seq datasets of AD, one single cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) dataset of ascending thoracic aortic aneurysm (ATAA), and one bulk RNA-seq dataset of MS from the gene expression omnibus (GEO) database. Identification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and key modules via weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), functional enrichment analysis, and machine learning algorithms (Random Forest and LASS
