Of the CRC TF genes, 6 were associated with NB patient OS, based on reads per kilobase of transcripts per million reads (RPKM) values of RNA sequencing (Additional file 2: Fig. S1A) or Agilent microarray data (Additional file 2: Fig. S1B) deposited to cBioportal. The gene discussed is TF; the disease is colorectal carcinoma.
