Identification of prognostic survival markers in combined childhood non-MBSHH and non-MBWNT survival cohort (aged 3·0–16·0 years, receiving craniospinal irradiation, with survival information). p values from Cox proportional hazards analyses are shown. The characteristics of covariates selected in cross-validated multivariate models are also shown. The high-risk methylomic group comprised samples from both MBGrp3 and MBGrp4, defined by the shared MBGrp3/4 metagene V1. HR=hazard ratio. MB=medulloblastoma. Grp3=group 3. Grp4=group 4. M+=metastatic disease. M–=non-metastatic disease. i17q=isochromosome 17q. LCA=large-cell anaplastic. R+=residual disease (subtotal surgical resection). R–=no residual disease (gross total resection).
