Establishment and assessment of the predictive risk model. a Dot plot of risk score. Horizontal and vertical axes respectively represent risk score and ESCC samples, ranked by increasing risk score. Red and green colors represent high- and low- risk cases, respectively. b Dot plot of survival. Red and green colors represent dead and living ESCC cases, respectively. c Heat map of the expression levels of the three genes. Vertical and horizontal axes respectively represent genes and ESCC samples, ranked by increasing risk score. Genes with higher, lower, and same expression levels are shown in red, green, and black, respectively. Color bars at the bottom of the heat map represent sample types, with pink and blue indicating low- and high-risk score samples, respectively. d Overall survival curves obtained by the Kaplan–Meier method. P-values were obtained by the log rank test. e ROC curves of the risk model for predicting 1- and 3-year survival rates. f Kaplan–Meier curves of CSS for ESCC patients grouped by expression levels of COL9A3. ESCC, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma; ROC, receiver operating characteristic; CSS, cancer-specific survival; COLPA3, collagen type IX alpha 3 chain
