The Survival Scatter plot shows the clinical status (i.e. dead or alive) for all individuals in the patient cohort, based on the same data that underlies the corresponding Kaplan-Meier plots. Patients that are alive at last time for follow-up are shown in blue and patients who have died during the study are shown in red.
The x-axis shows the expression levels (FPKM) of the investigated gene in the tumor tissue at the time of diagnosis. The y-axis shows the follow-up time after diagnosis (years). Both axes are complimented with kernel density curves demonstrating the data density over the axes. The top density plot shows the expression levels (FPKM) distribution among dead (red) and alive patients (blue). The right density plot shows the data density of the survived years of dead patients with high and low expression levels respectively, stratified using the cutoff indicated by the vertical dashed line through the Survival Scatter plot. This cutoff is automatically defined based on the FPKM cutoff that minimizes the p-score. The cutoff can be changed by dragging the vertical line or by entering a cutoff value in the square labeled "Current cut-off".
Under the Survival Scatter plot the p-score landscape (black curve; left axis) is shown together with dead median separation (red curve; right axis). Dead median separation is the difference in median mRNA expression between patients who have died with high and low expression, respectively. It is calculated as follows: median FPKM expression of dead patients with high expression - median FPKM expression of dead patients with low expression. This is intended to aid the user in visually exploring custom cutoffs and the associated p-scores and dead median separation.
Individual patient data is displayed and can be filtered by clicking on one or more of the category buttons on the top of the page. Categories describing expression level and patient information include: high, low, alive, dead, female, male and tumor stages. The scale of the x-axis can be toggled between linear and log-scale by clicking on the "x log" button. Mouse-over function shows TCGA ID, patient information and mRNA expression (FPKM) for each patient.
& Survival analysisi
Kaplan-Meier plots summarize results from analysis of correlation between mRNA expression level and patient survival. Patients were divided based on level of expression into one of the two groups "low" (under cut off) or "high" (over cut off). X-axis shows time for survival (years) and y-axis shows the probability of survival, where 1.0 corresponds to 100 percent.
Current cut-off shows the cut-off (FPKM) currently selected. It may be changed manually. When the current cut-off is changed, the vertical dashed line indicating cut-off, the interactive survival scatter plot and the Kaplan-Meier curve will be automatically adjusted to show results accordingly.
: Best expression cut offi
Based on the FPKM value of each gene, patients were classified into two groups and association between prognosis (survival) and gene expression (FPKM) was examined. The best expression cut-off refers the FPKM value that yields maximal difference with regard to survival between the two groups at the lowest log-rank P-value. Best expression cut-off was selected based on survival analysis .
When clicking on this number, the vertical dashed line indicating cut-off, the interactive survival plot, and the Kaplan-Meier curve will be adjusted to show results based on the best expression cut-off.
Median expression refers to the median FPKM value calculated based on the gene expression (FPKM) data from all patients in this dataset. When clicking on this number, the vertical dashed line indicating cut-off, the interactive survival plot, and the Kaplan-Meier curve will be adjusted to show results based on the median expression.
Median follow up time refers to the median time (years) after diagnosis with this type of cancer, based on clinical data from all patients in this dataset.
: N/A P scorei
Log-rank P value for Kaplan-Meier plot showing results from analysis of correlation between mRNA expression level and patient survival.
N/A 5-year survival highi
5-year survival for patients with higher expression than the expression cutoff.
For melanoma and glioma, 3-year survival is shown.
N/A 5-year survival lowi
5-year survival for patients with lower expression than the expression cutoff.
For melanoma and glioma, 3-year survival is shown.
N/A
TCGA RNA samplesi
RNA-seq data is reported as median FPKM (number Fragments Per Kilobase of exon per Million reads), generated by the The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) .
Normal distribution across the dataset is visualized with box plots, shown as median and 25th and 75th percentiles. Points are displayed as outliers if they are above or below 1.5 times the interquartile range. FPKM values of the individual samples are presented next to the box plot.
