Association between BRAF detection rate and QFI status for PTC samples
| All PTC samples, N = 30 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Luminex | 1052-amplicon | |||
| BRAF WT | BRAF mutant | BRAF WT | BRAF mutant | |
| QFI = 0% | 9 | 1 | 10 | 0 |
| 0% < QFI < = 3% | 6 | 7 | 8 | 5 |
| QFI > 3% | 2 | 5 | 2 | 5 |
| Fisher-test p-value | 0.03 | 0.005 | ||
When considering the 30 PTC sample subset of the 72 sample Thyroid set, both the Luminex and the 1052-amplicon panel showed a significant association between BRAF detection and QFI status.
