computeSurvivalPValueOneGenePair: Survival analysis for one pair of genes

In cancerGI: Analyses of Cancer Gene Interaction

Survival analysis for one pair of genes

Description

This function performs survival analysis, similar to function computeSurvivalPValueForGenePairSet.output, but for one pair of genes.

Usage

computeSurvivalPValueOneGenePair(data.mut, data.surv, 
	colTime = 2, colStatus = 3, 
	type.gene1 = (-1), type.gene2 = (-1), 
	groups = c("All", "Two"), 
	compare = c("Both", "Gene1", "Gene2"), 
	PLOT = FALSE, PRINT = FALSE, 
	pvalue.text.x = 10, pvalue.text.y = 0.1, 
	legend.x = 150, legend.y = 1)

Arguments

data.mut	Integer matrix of individuals by two genes. Each column containing the mutation patterns of multiple genes: 0 as wildtype, 1 amplification and -1 deletion.
data.surv	Data frame containing case ID, survival time and survival status. Cases should match those in data.mut.
colTime	Scalar indicating which column in data.surv contains the survival time.
colStatus	A character string indicating which column in data.surv contains the survival status: "DECEASED" or "LIVING".
type.gene1	Integer indicating the type of mutation: 0 for wild type, 1 for amplification, and -1 for deletion.
type.gene2	Same as type.gene1, but for the second gene.
groups	"All" if comparing all combinations: wildtype & wildtype, wild type & mutated, both mutated; or "Two", if only comparing single mutation and double mutation.
compare	"Both" if comparing all four combinations: wildtype & wildtype, wildtype & mutated, mutated & wildtype, and mutated & mutated. "Gene1" if comparing three combinations: gene1 wildtype, gene1 mutated & gene2 wildtype, and both mutated. "Gene2" is similar to "Gene1".
PLOT	If TRUE, plot the survival curves and print the p value onto the plot. Location of the p value legend is controlled by pvalue.text.x and pvalue.text.y described below.
PRINT	If TRUE, print intermediate values.
pvalue.text.x	The x coordinate of the p value legend in plot.
pvalue.text.y	The y coordinate of the p value legend in plot.
legend.x	The x coordinate of the curve legend in plot.
legend.y	The y coordinate of the curve legend in plot.

Value

The output contains the same info as described in computeSurvivalPValueForGenePairSet.output.
