The PCC-only survival factors are dispensable on the network viewpoint. The networks of PMI and PCC significant CoCNV survival factors combined for triple negative breast cancer (a), triple positive breast cancer (b) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (c). Red nodes and edges are PMI-only, green nodes and edges are PCC-only, the rest node and edges are from both PMI and PCC. It is shown that, irrelevant to their scales or structures, PMI covers most parts of the combined networks. Removing PCC-only parts do not change the biological meaning of the whole networks. These figures focus on the structure of networks, gene names of nodes are not listed. Similar results are observed in CoDM networks, they are too large and are shown in supplementary materials
