2011.12.12.: We had several server breakdowns due to thousands of automated analyses run by bots in the last few days. Therefore we have built-in a human recognition control. By using a single character-code only we tried to minimize the load on regular users.
2011.11.28.: A bug of the latest release related to reversed classification of ER status and lymph node status has been corrected. Please re-calculate all ER-status related correlations for analyses made between 14.11.2011 and 28.11.2011.
2011.11.18.: A table containing the exact probe sequences has been added to the background page.
2011.11.14.: NEW FEATURE: The settings menu has been extended with an option to prepare the output graph in TIFF format. Additionally, returning users can mark the latest updates.
2011.11.07.: The settings menu has been extende with an option to save the analysis settings.
2011.11.05.: The analytical page has been extended with a settings menu. For better overview, we have moved some of the minor options into this menu.
2011.10.25.: NEW FEATURE: The probe sets can now be be restricted to JetSet selected best probe sets.
2011.09.05.: NEW FEATURE: The breast cancer analytical page has been extended with the molecular subtypes. The analysis can now be restricted to basal, lumina A, luminal B and HER2? samples.
2011.09.04.: The ovarian cancer analytical page has been extended with the combination of different stage patients. Additionally, the histology groups serous and serous/papillary have been merged.
2011.09.01.: The "Split patients by:" menu has been extended with the option of splitting the patients in lower and upper tertiles.
2011.09.01.: Initial release of the KM plotter for ovarian cancer.
2011.08.05.: Graphical upgrade was performed on the homepage.
2011.08.01.: Initial release of the Multiple-Testing Correction page.
2011.06.11.: The descrtiptions have been updated.
2011.06.06.: DATABASE UPDATE: Another GEO dataset (GSE21653) has been added to the database. The analysis now runs on 2,472 samples.
2011.06.03.: DATABASE UPDATE: Another GEO dataset (GSE17705) has been added to the database.
2011.05.16.: NEW FEATURE: Use multiple probe sets for the analysis. To activate the feature, please use the "Enter more Affy IDs" button. To use the mean expression of the entered probe sets, tick the "Use mean expression of the selected probes" box.
2011.05.16.: Feedback update: the number of patients included in the final analysis are now computed and displayed in real time on the right side. Additionally, the box has a background color representing the robustness of the sample number.
2011.03.28.: NEW FEATURE: Plot beeswarm graph of probe distribution. The bee swarm plot is capable to visualize gene expression as non-overlapping points in a one-dimensional scatter-plot. A beeswarm plot can be used to quickly identify outlier samples.
2011.03.04.: NEW FEATURE: Follow-up threshold. Patients over the selected threshold will not be included in the analysis. This feature is extremely useful for those searching for biomarkers affecting short-time RFS.
2011.01.12.: We had several power failures in the winter holidays. The database engine of kmplot.com has been re-designed to completely restart after power failure.
2011.01.10.: The introduction has been updated.
2010.12.13.: The gene symbol table has been updated using the database published by the HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee (EMBL Hinxton). Now 70,632 symbols can be used.
2010.11.02.: Gene symbol has been added to the output window.
2010.10.24.: COLOR CODE UPDATE: The color codes for the probe set quality estimation were updated. The original color codes were computed using 1,809 samples, the updated color codes are based on 12,114 samples from 85 GEO datasets.
2010.10.01.: DATABASE UPDATE: Another GEO dataset (GSE2603) has been added to the database. The analysis now runs on 1908 samples.
2010.10.: Our paper desribing the KM plotter has been published in the October issue of Breast Cancer Research and Treatment.
