Figure 1. Next-generation sequencing of small-RNAs showed 16 miRNAs (squares and triangles) that were significantly differentially expressed, of which 10 miRNAs (triangles) exhibited an absolute fold change of 2 or above.

MiR-203 expression levels were significantly different between short-term vs. long-term survivors (log₂Foldchange = 1.02, p = 0.006).
