Methods & Data
Input
  • Copy number data file = transformed.cor.cli.txt

  • Molecular subtypes file = DLBC-TP.transferedmergedcluster.txt

  • Number of patients = 28

  • Number of significantly arm-level cnvs = 24

  • Number of molecular subtypes = 7

  • Exclude genes that fewer than K tumors have mutations, K = 3

Fisher's exact test

For binary or multi-class clinical features (nominal or ordinal), two-tailed Fisher's exact tests (Fisher 1922) were used to estimate the P values using the 'fisher.test' function in R

Q value calculation

For multiple hypothesis correction, Q value is the False Discovery Rate (FDR) analogue of the P value (Benjamini and Hochberg 1995), defined as the minimum FDR at which the test may be called significant. We used the 'Benjamini and Hochberg' method of 'p.adjust' function in R to convert P values into Q values.
