Comment on “Analysis of Microarray-Identified Genes and MicroRNAs Associated with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis”

الملخص EN

Recently, we read the article by Dr.

Fan and colleagues, “Analysis of Microarray-Identified Genes and MicroRNAs Associated with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis” [1] which appeared in the 14 May 2017 issue of Mediators of Inflammation.

Since the results of the article are very useful, we collected original data and used different bioinformatics methods to reanalyse the raw data; however, we get different results compared with those of the article, and we think that the author’s methods in bioinformatics analysis are inappropriate.
