Table 5. ISH miR staining scores for aggressive and stable DTs.

Phenotype/case Weighted staining score
miR-21-5p miR-34a-5p
Aggressive A Level A Level
1 130 high 200 high
2 120 high 165 high
3 0 none 110 low
4 0 none 0 none
Stable
5 35 low 170 high
6 0 none 140 high

The weighted score is: (1 × the percentage staining at intensity 1) + (2 × the percentage staining at intensity 2) + (3 × the percentage staining at intensity 3). A weighted score of 120 or more is then arbitrarily defined as high level staining.
