Key granuloma outputs are indicated in the table columns and significantly correlated parameters in the table rows. PRCC results are reported as a sign(s) (positive [+] or negative [−]) as well as rank (from strongest correlation [+ + + + or −−−−] to weakest correlation [+ or −]) as determined by z-test results. Significance in PRCC and z-test calculations, alpha = 0.01. Early, <40 dpi; late, >200 dpi.
