Fig. 3.

Fraction of the total sequencing reads mapped occupied by each of the ten most highly expressed miRNAs (based upon the mean of 18 samples) are presented (grey bars) ± S.E.M. The mean expression in human plasma, serum and whole blood derived from 116 publically available datasets is included on the right hand axis for comparison (reads per million—RPM ± S.E.M, in Log2 form). Note for clarity, errors bars are only included for the plasma datasets
