Work flow chart and immune landscape analysis of IF/TA group and control group. (a) Work flow chart of this study, drawn with online tool SangerBox (http://vip.sangerbox.com). (b–d) The immune and stromal scores were analyzed using the ESTIMATE algorithm (vs. control, ). (e) Heatmap of immune cell infiltration. Each small square represents each immune cell gene set and its color represents the size of the gene expression. The greater the expression, the deeper the color (red is high expression and blue is low expression). The first line represents sample grouping, lake blue represents control sample, and pink represents IF/TA sample. Each row represents the expression of each gene set in different samples, and each column represents the expression of all gene sets in each sample. (f) The abundance of immune cells in ssGSEA. in the figure is a significance marker, stands for , stands for , stands for , and stands for .
