PRDM1 and neoplasm: A risk model incorporating seven genes (e.g., PRDM1 [protective] and ZFPM2 [risk]) stratified TC patients into high- and low-risk groups with distinct survival outcomes (p = 0.017).<h4>Conclusion</h4>T2D and TC exhibit overlapping genetic dysregulation, particularly in pathways governing metabolic reprogramming and tumor microenvironment crosstalk.
