What it is
RNA-seq (gene expression)Gene activity measured by sequencing. The summary does not mention single-cell work, so this is most likely bulk: one average per sample, the usual starting point for comparing groups.
Organism
Homo sapiens (human)
Samples
70 samples: 43 × J vs 22 × D vs 3 × S vs 2 × KGroups are read from the sample names, not from the paper. Check the list below.
Data you can get
A processed table (series matrix) and supplementary files from NCBI; the raw sequencing reads from ENA. Which of these hold counts depends on the study, so check the file list.

Summary (written by the submitters)
Frailty in elderly cardiovascular disease (CVD) patients is linked to declining functional capacity and procedural complications. This study investigated the transcriptomic signature of frailty in patients ≥70 years undergoing cardiac surgery or TAVI. Frailty was assessed using mobility, gait speed, and handgrip strength. Muscle samples were collected during surgery for RNA sequencing, and gene expression was analyzed.
Read the full summary ↓
Transcriptomic analysis identified 10 frailty-associated genes, with S100A1 showing the strongest association. Functional studies confirmed S100A1’s role in muscle function, and higher blood S100A1 levels correlated with handgrip strength in a second cohort. S100A1 is a potential target for addressing frailty in elderly CVD patients and offers insights into genetic factors contributing to frailty.

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE287726_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1214336 and SRA study SRP559206. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
43 × J vs 22 × D vs 3 × S vs 2 × K

Supports a between-group comparison across 70 samples.

How we read this: 4 replicated groups read from 70 sample titles; they account for 70 of them. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
