Analysis of batch vs clinical traits
Number of clinical traits: 23
Number of batches based on the pattern for DNA methylation samples: 3
Correlation between batch and center in AML:
> table(batchID,two) two batchID AB 0741 96 0742 73 0743 25
There is only one center from which all patients come from.
Significant trait - batch correlations (all other correlations can be found in a table here)
