Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent form of controlled cell death and is characterized by the formation of lipid peroxides. Understanding gene expressions associated with ferroptosis is critical for determining its function in illnesses and potential therapeutic approaches. Despite its significance, no computational model is currently available to accurately quantify the ferroptosis incident. FerroEnrich is a sophisticated web-based tool built using R Shiny application to enumerate the occurrence of ferroptosis based on the relevant gene expressions. This tool available at https://ferroenrich.shinyapps.io/ferroenrich/ processes the input gene expression file to identify genes that are resistant or prone to ferroptosis, calculates ferroptosis index value with dynamic colored heatmap and gene network plot. This manuscript describes the design, operation and usability of FerroEnrich, including examples and a discussion of its potential impact on ferroptosis research. FerroEnrich is a vital tool for researchers, allowing them to explore and analyze complicated gene expression data related to ferroptosis.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
