Differential Analysis of Immune function, Tumour Infiltrating Immune Cells and Immune Checkpoint Genes. The distinctions in immune-related functions between the high- and low-risk groups are presented as a heatmap (A) and box plots (B). The differences in tumour-infiltrating immune cells between the two groups are reported as box plots using the ssGSEA algorithm (C). Differences in the expression of immune checkpoint genes in the two groups are presented as box plots (D). “*”, “**” and “***” represent P < 0.05, P < 0.01 and P < 0.001, respectively
