Spatial immune cell architecture after gastric cancer surgery predicts prognosis

Figure 1 High-risk and low-risk groups and immune infiltration of various immune cells. Correlation analysis between risk score and immune cell infiltration levels. Scatter plots displaying the correlations between risk score (X-axis) and the abundance of six immune cell types (Y-axis). CD8+ T cells (correlation coefficient = 0.411, P = 3.052 × 10^-18); CD4+ T cells (correlation coefficient = 0.587, P = 6.238 × 10^-40), cancer-associated fibroblasts (correlation coefficient = 0.683, P = 3.354 × 10^-58), dendritic cells (correlation coefficient = 0.302, P = 3.455 × 10^-10), tumor-associated macrophages (correlation coefficient = 0.453, P = 5.05 × 10^-22), and neutrophils (correlation coefficient = 0.218, P = × 10^-5). All immune cell types showed significant positive correlations with risk score, with cancer-associated fibroblasts demonstrating the strongest correlation. Each dot represents an individual sample, and the gray shaded area indicates the 95% confidence interval of the regression line. Cor: Correlation coefficient.
