Potential diagnostic value of circulating miRNAs in HFrEF and bioinformatics analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Few studies have compared the performances of those reported miRNAs as biomarkers for heart failure with reduced EF (HFrEF) in a population at high risk. The purpose of this study is to investigate comprehensively the performance of those miRNAs as biomarkers for HFrEF.

Methods

By using bioinformatics methods, we also examined these miRNAs' target genes and possible signal transduction pathways. We collected serum samples from patients with HFrEF at Zhongshan Hospital. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to evaluate the accuracy of those miRNAs as biomarkers for HFrEF. miRWALK2.0, Gene Ontology (GO) analysis, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis were performed to predict the target genes and pathways of select
