No correlation between miRNA-424 levels and age or sex could be seen. Significant difference in miRNA-424 expression in tongue SCC but not in gingival and floor of the mouth tumours. Our previous study showed that different areas within the oral cavity vary in their miRNA expression (Boldrup ...
The weight difference did, however, progressively increase with age in the females, as manifested by the greater separation of the weight curves. The C4.4A−/− and C4.4A+/+ female mice were followed for another 20 weeks until 50 weeks of age, at which the weight difference had ...
Factors available for these analyses were sex (male, female), age (in years), stage (I–III), and treatment (5FU regimen, no 5FU), all of which had significant multivariate impact on outcome (P ¼ 0.005–o0.0001). Robust comparison with Kaplan–Meier results required a large subgroup ...
More than 95% were seen by one clinician (RDT). The median (interquartile range (IQR)) age was 52 years (40–64), and 252 (62.4%) were female (P = 0.001 for an expected equal sex ratio). Diagnoses were not made for 138 patients (34.2%), mainly because of ongoing assessment at ...
