(a) Overall survival comparison within cancer types between patients afflicted with high-ELF4 tumours and those afflicted with low-ELF4 tumours. Compared to the patients with low-ELF4 tumours, the red boxplots indicate median OS durations that are shorter for the patients with high-ELF4 tumours; the blue indicates median OS durations that are longer for the patients with high-ELF4 whereas the grey boxplots indicate median OS periods that are undefined (undefined median DFS period in that > 50% of patients survived beyond the study duration). On each box, the centre mark shows the median, and the left and right edges of the box show the 25th and 75th percentiles, respectively. The whiskers extend to the most extreme data points that are not outliers, and the outliers are shown individually using the ’+’ symbol. (b) shows the percentage of the total number of patients with tumours with each group given the colours of the bars. The number of patients with tumours labels the marks expressed high ELF4 and low ELF4 transcripts.
