TABLE 2.
Correlation between f and four morphological parameters of tank-treading red cells
| Correlation between f and | L′ | B | L′/B |  |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Null hypothesis accepted | 64 | 69 | 61 | 76 |
| Null hypothesis dismissed; r > 0 | 5 | 10 | 5 | 2 |
| Null hypothesis dismissed; r < 0 | 12 | 2 | 15 | 3 |
The null hypothesis (no correlation) was tested (t-test, significance level 95%) for the cells (∼25) measured for each condition (specified by donor, 
and η0). The numbers indicate in how many of all 81 conditions the hypothesis was accepted or dismissed. The dismissed cases are split up according to the sign of the respective correlation coefficient (r).
