Development of a novel angiogenesis-related lncRNA signature to predict the prognosis and immunotherapy of glioblastoma multiforme

Differences in risk scores for clinical characteristics. (A-D) The correlations between the risk score and sex, age, MGMT status, and IDH1 status were not significant (P>0.05). (E) Among the subtypes, the proneural subtypes had a significantly lower risk score than did the mesenchymal subtypes (P<0.05). **, P<0.01. IDH1, isocitrate dehydrogenase 1; MGMT, O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase; ns, no significance.
