Integrating multiomics analysis and machine learning to refine the molecular subtyping and prognostic analysis of stomach adenocarcinoma by Miaodong Wang, Qin He, Zeshan Chen, Yijue Qin

“…Patients in the high-CMLS group had a significantly poorer prognosis and were less sensitive to immunotherapy but were likely to benefit more from chemotherapy and targeted therapy. In this study, 10 clustering methods and 10 machine learning methods were combined to analyze the multiomics of STAD, classify STAD into three subtypes, and constructed CMLS-related prognostic model features, which are important for accurate management and effective treatment of STAD.…”
