Hello I'm running an analysis on RNA-seq data from TCGA & need help understanding the coefficients in DESeq2.
Here is my code so far:
library('DESeq2')
cts <- read.csv(file='/Users/Corey/Desktop/DESeq2/Final_DESeq2/GeneName.csv')
nrow(cts)
ncol(cts)
colData <- read.csv(file='colData.csv')
ncol(colData)
nrow(colData)
rownames(cts) <- cts$Geneid
cts$Geneid <- NULL
dds <- DESeqDataSetFromMatrix(countData=cts, colData=colData, design= ~ patient + condition)
keep <- rowSums(counts(dds) >= 10) >= 5
dds <- dds[keep,]
# This is the issue: dds$condition <- relevel(dds$condition, ref='NT')
dds <- DESeq(dds, fitType='local')
resultsNames(dds)
res <- results(dds)
res
I have a few things that I will add like LFCshrink & lfcThreshold. But when I used the resultsNames function I get this:

Could some explain why the comparisons are made between different patients when the sample are matched. If needed I can provide my colData object also...
