Identification of early diagnostic biomarkers via WGCNA in gastric cancer

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is the world's second-leading cause of cancer-related mortality, continuing to make it a serious healthcare concern. Even though the prevalence of GC reduces, the prognosis for GC patients remains poor in terms of a lack of reliable biomarkers to diagnose early G...
