_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     The data consist of microarrays from 128 different individuals
     with  acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). A number of additional
     covariates are available. The data have been normalized (using
     gcrma) and it is the jointly normalized data that are available
     here. The data are presented in the form of an 'exprSet' object.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     data(ALL)

_F_o_r_m_a_t:

     The different covariates are:

   '_c_o_d' The patient IDs.

   '_d_i_a_g_n_o_s_i_s' The date of diagnosis.

   '_s_e_x' The sex of the patient, coded as 'M' and 'F'.

   '_a_g_e' The age of the patient in years.

   '_B_T' The type and stage of the disease; 'B' indicates  B-cell ALL
        while a 'T' indicates T-cell ALL.

   '_r_e_m_i_s_s_i_o_n' A factor with two levels, either 'CR' indicate  that
        remission was achieved or 'REF' indicating that the patient was
        refractory and remission was not achieved.

        died while remission was being attempted.

   '_d_a_t_e._c_r' The date on which remission was achieved.

   '_t(_4;_1_1)' A logical vector indicating whether a t(4;11) 
        translocation was detected.

   '_t(_9;_2_2)' A logical vector indicating whether a t(9;22) 
        translocation was detected.

   '_c_y_t_o._n_o_r_m_a_l' A logical vector indicating whether the  cytogenetics
        were normal.

   '_c_i_t_o_g' A vector indicating the various cytogenetic abnormalities
        that were detected.

   '_m_o_l._b_i_o_l' The assigned molecular biology of the cancer (mainly  for
        those with B-cell ALL), BCR/ABL, ALL/AF4, E2APBX etc.

   '_f_u_s_i_o_n _p_r_o_t_e_i_n' For those with BCR/ABL which of the fusion 
        proteins was detected,  'p190', 'p190/p210', 'p210'.

   '_m_d_r' The patients response to multidrug resistance, either 'NEG',
        or 'POS'.

   '_k_i_n_e_t' Not sure what this is.

   '_c_c_r' What does it really mean

   '_r_e_l_a_p_s_e' Definition

   '_t_r_a_n_s_p_l_a_n_t' Did the patient receive a bone marrow transplant or

   '_f._u' List the possible values and what they mean "BMT / DEATH IN
        CR" "rel" "rel" "rel " ...

    _d_a_t_e _l_a_s_t _s_e_e_n Date the patient was last seen.
