Immune cell infiltration patterns of two VEGF score subtypes in HPV-positive and -negative HNSCC. (a) Stroma fraction and leukocyte fraction of the two VEGF score subtypes. (b) Immune score, stromal score, and Estimate score of the two VEGF score subtypes. (c) Heatmap of immune cell infiltration, including both anti-tumor immune cells and pro-tumor immune cells. (d) A positive correlation between these two categories of immune cells in VEGF cluster. (e) Anti-tumor immunity and pro-tumor immunity of the two VEGF score subtypes. All P values for significance (< 0.05) represent comparisons via two-tailed t test and multiple t tests with FDR < 0.05 for continuous comparisons. All r values represent Pearson correlation coefficients
