cb: cerebellum; hip: hippocampus; hyp: hypothalamus; R/L FC: Fold change between the right and left hemisphere of the given region; P: nominal P-value; Adj. P: Adjusted P-value corrected for multiple testing by BH; R/L ratio: Ratio of the relative miRNA expression levels in the right and left hemispheres, nd: not done.
