FIGURE 2.
Expression of candidate NeurimmiRs in the CSF and serum of patients with or without POD. Scatter plots of mean Ct-values of U6 (A) and expression levels of miR-146a (B), miR-125b (C), and miR-181c (D) in the CSF and serum of patients with or without POD. Rel was calculated after normalization using U6 snRNA. The black horizontal lines represent median Rel values ± 95% CIs. Each point represents the mean of triplicate samples. P-values were determined using the Mann–Whitney U-test. POD, postoperative delirium; Rel, relative expression level; CSF, cerebrospinal fluid.
