Identification of relevant modules associated with OvCa clinical traits. a Clustering dendrograms of genes were based on dissimilarity topological overlap and module colours. As a result, 8 co-expression modules were constructed and are shown in different colours. These modules were arranged from large to small according to the number of genes included. b This heatmap depicted the TOM among all genes in the analysis. A light colour represented low overlap, and progressively darker reds indicated higher overlap. Blocks of darker colours along the diagonal were the modules. The gene dendrogram and module assignment were also shown along the left and upper sides. c The eigengene dendrogram and heatmap identify groups of correlated with eigengenes termed meta-modules. As a result, the dendrogram showed that blue modules were highly related to OvCa patients’ survival. d Heatmap of the correlation between module eigengenes and clinical traits of OvCa. The blue gene module was revealed to exhibit the highest correlation with both OS and PFS events
