Abstract

BACKGROUND: Globally, pre-eclampsia (PE) poses a major threat to the health and survival of pregnant women and fetuses, contributing significantly to morbidity and mortality. Recent studies suggest a pathological link between PE and ferroptosis. We aim to utilize non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) clustering and machine learning algorithms to pinpoint disease-specific genes related to the process of ferroptosis in PE and investigate likely underlying biochemistry mechanisms.
