Figure 2. RNA integrity numbers in patient-matched tissues.

RIN values from patient-matched tissues were plotted against tissue types. Selected cases from each of the four PMI categories were shown. Samples with low RNA yield leading to unreported or unreliable RIN were assigned to a RIN value of 0 and indicated by a circle. Dashed lines indicate tissues not analysed for that patient. Abbreviations are He, heart; Ki, kidney; Li, liver; Lu, Lung; Pa, pancreas; Ske, skeletal muscle; Ski, skin; Sp, spleen; Pr, primary tumor; LiM, liver mets; LuM, Lung mets.
