Associations between baseline miRNA expression and clinico-pathologic parameters

	miR-7	miR-200c	miR-340	miR-125b	miR-155
	[p]
ductal type	↓ <0.01				↓ 0.04
Grade 3	↓ 0.03			↓ 0.01
Estrogen receptor positivity		↓ 0.04			↓ 0.03
Progesterone receptor positivity		↓ <0.01
HER2 positivity	↓ 0.03		↓ <0.01
Estrogen receptor-positive/HER2 negative status		↓ <0.01	↓ 0.02		↓ 0.02

p, two-sided level of significance assessed by Mann-Whitney test

↑, higher expression associated with the respective clinico-pathologic parameter

↓, lower expression associated with the respective clinico-pathologic parameter

miRNAs not demonstrating significant associations with any clinico-pathologic parameter (miR-21, -29a, -29b, -451, -34a) are not shown
