Fig. 4From: Identification of crucial genes involved in pathogenesis of regional weakening of the aortic wallAlgorithm of identification of the hub DEGs. (A) Gene sets highly related to the antiquewhite3 module and disease trait with a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.64 and P < 0.05. Hub genes were identified with module membership > 0.8 in the blue rectangle. (B) A total of 186 downregulated hDEGs were obtained by overlapping 367 hub genes and 350 DEGsBack to article page
