Of the 41 candidate genes with high‐frequency mutation rates, six genes were significantly associated with OS: TP53, LPP, MAP3K13, FGF12, BCL6, and TP63. Further stratified analysis in PLC, LUAD, and LUSC datasets, we only identified that TP53 was significantly associated with OS in patients with surgically resected stage I lung adenocarcinoma. The gene discussed is HSPG2; the disease is lung adenocarcinoma.
