Prognostic significance of pyroptosis-related factors in lung adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Numerous studies have revealed that the abnormal expression of pyroptosis-related genes is closely related to the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD); however, a comprehensive analysis has yet to be conducted. This study aimed to reveal the influence of pyroptosis-related genes on the prognosis of LUAD and establish a prognostic model based on those genes, in order to evaluate the prognosis of LUAD.

Methods

The data of tumor and normal samples were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases. Differential analysis was used to identify pyroptosis-related genes (obtained from the GeneCards database) that were differentially expressed (DE) in TCGA database. Univariate and stepwise multivariate Cox proportional hazard
