Fig. 4From: Social networks help to infer causality in the tumor microenvironmentComparison between influence-based and random directionality assignment in breast, ovarian and lung cancer. The directionality assignment based on influence (blue dots) performed better than random for the three biological examples, namely breast, ovarian and lung cancer (green, orange and blue boxplot respectively). The best results in the three cases were obtained using a p value of 0.01 as the threshold for the co-expression network construction (labeled as BC 0.01, OC 0.01 and LC 0.01)Back to article page
