Screening candidate genes using WGCNA analysis and “VennDiagram” software: (a) Conduct ssGSEA scoring on ROS genes to determine inter-group differences; (b) Perform hierarchical clustering based on the Euclidean distance of sample expression levels to identify outlier samples; (c) Determine the optimal soft threshold; (d) Gene co-expression modules, with each color representing a co-expression module; (e) Heatmap of module-OA associations; the green module shows the strongest correlation; (f) Venn diagram of the overlap between DEGs and module genes in the green module.(**P < 0.01).
