Fig. 1. The computational algorithm for identification of ICP-LncCRCTs.

a Schematic representation of the four steps in the identification of ICP-LncCRCTs. b The number of ICP-related lncRNAs and ICP-LncCRCTs in each cancer type. c Venn diagram showing the overlap of coexpressed gene pairs detected using the PCC and MI methods. The hypergeometric test was used to assess the significance of the overlap. d Venn diagram of the results identified with other independent datasets. The intersections represent jointly identified results. The hypergeometric test was used to assess the significance of the overlap. e Venn diagram of ICP-related lncRNAs and immune-, cancer- and disease-related lncRNAs. The intersection represents the common lncRNAs. The hypergeometric test was used to assess the significance of the overlap.
