Abstract
This study establishes a novel prognostic signature based on seven ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) for primary glioblastoma (GBM). The model independently predicts patient survival and is associated with distinct immune microenvironment profiles, including altered infiltration of NK cells and regulatory T cells. The low-risk group demonstrated potential heightened sensitivity to immunotherapy. These findings propose the FRG signature as a valuable tool for prognosis assessment and personalized treatment strategy in GBM.
期刊介绍:
The primary aims of Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering are to provide a means of communicating the advances being made in the areas of biomechanics and biomedical engineering and to stimulate interest in the continually emerging computer based technologies which are being applied in these multidisciplinary subjects. Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering will also provide a focus for the importance of integrating the disciplines of engineering with medical technology and clinical expertise. Such integration will have a major impact on health care in the future.
