Fig. 4

A subset of the disease co-occurrence matrix and the relationships between 23 diseases beginning with cancer (top) and ending with hypercholesterolemia (bottom). Disease labels for the rows apply to the columns as well. The value of each element (i, j) is the sum of the uniqueness values of all genes related to both disease i and disease j (i.e. d ij ). Darker squares indicate a higher uniqueness value. This figure was created using MATLAB [20]. The disease-gene relationships were extracted from DORIF data
