Forest plots for GAPDH Hazard Ratio results in all datasets. Forest plots style comparison for GAPDH Hazard Ratio (HR) Cox regression results in our patient dataset (IST) RQ-PCR measurements, and in the public microarray datasets. Confidence intervals (95%) bars and marker square sizes according to forest plot standards [32]. A) Comparison of HR calculated by Cox models without adjusting for tumor stage; B) same comparison adjusting for tumor stage in the models. Patient number (N pts) and five-years cumulative survival (Surv 5y) are also reported. A general agreement of our data with most microarray data can be observed. Botling 2013 data is an exception, in both forest plots, due to its different HR but also its low cumulative survival. Furthermore, in B), tumor stage adjusting has a bigger effect on IST dataset, while not much affecting any microarray dataset result.
