Dual molecular and clinical machine-learning prognostic modeling in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma: a chaperone-mediated autophagy–based framework integrating multi-cohort molecular signatures and a single-center clinical nomogram

Background Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by marked molecular, cellular, and clinical heterogeneity. Chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA) supports adaptation to metabolic and environmental stress, but its cell type-specific distribution and prognostic relevance in PDAC remain unclear. Methods Si...
