Identification of Hub Genes Associated With Tuberculous Pleurisy by Integrated Bioinformatics Analysis

Improving the understanding of the molecular mechanism of tuberculous pleurisy is required to develop diagnosis and new therapy strategies of targeted genes. The purpose of this study is to identify important genes related to tuberculous pleurisy. In this study, the expression profile obtained by se...
