With the advent of the big data era, the processing of mass data has evolved into a hot topic and gained a solid foundation from the steadily developed and improved machine learning algorithms. Aiming to provide a reference for the diagnosis and treatment of osteoarthritis, this paper using machine learning identifies the key feature genes of osteoarthritis and explores its relationship with immune infiltration, thereby revealing its pathogenesis at the molecular level.\nMETHODS: From the GEO database, GSE55235 and GSE55457 data were derived as training sets and GSE98918 data as a validation set. Differential gene expressions of the training sets were analyzed, and the LASSO regression model and support vector machine model were established by applying machine learning algorithms. Moreover, their intersection genes were regarded as feature genes, the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn, and the results were verified using the validation set. In addition, the expression spectrum of osteoarthritis was analyzed by immunocyte infiltration and the co-expression correlation between feature genes and immunocytes was construed.\nCONCLUSION: EPYC and KLF9 can be viewed as feature genes for osteoarthritis. The silencing of EPYC and the overexpression of KLF9 are associated with the occurrence of osteoarthritis and immunocyte infiltration.", "claims": [{"id": "claim-data-access", "statement": "All data generated or analyzed during this study are available from the author.", "kind": "methodological", "target": null, "evidence": [{"asset": "source:pmid:35902862", "locator": "sections[24] \"Availability of data and material\" paragraph 2", "quote": "All data generated or analyzed during this study are available from the author."}], "state": "complete"}, {"id": "claim-target-result", "statement": "EPYC and KLF9 can be viewed as feature genes for osteoarthritis.", "kind": "qualitative", "target": null, "evidence": [{"asset": "source:pmid:35902862", "locator": "sections[0] \"Abstract\" paragraph 3", "quote": "EPYC and KLF9 can be viewed as feature genes for osteoarthritis."}], "state": "complete"}], "gaps": []}, "experiment": {"state": "complete", "objective": "EPYC and KLF9 can be viewed as feature genes for osteoarthritis.", "steps": [{"id": "read_published_estimate", "order": 1, "name": "Read the published estimate from the source", "kind": "other", "state": "complete", "blocked_on": null, "description": "The claim, method and evidence span published with the source article.", "duration_hours": null, "parameters": {}, "inputs": ["source:pmid:35902862"], "outputs": ["the published estimate and its evidence"], "instruments": [], "reagents": []}, {"id": "obtain_source_data", "order": 2, "name": "Obtain the source data from the named repository", "kind": "data-preparation", "state": "complete", "blocked_on": null, "description": "The GEO series accession resolves and its sample accessions are listed.
