Fig. 2. Expression and diagnostic significance of circRNA_104670 and miR-17-3p.
a, b The degenerative group has higher expression of circRNA_104670 (p = 0.00) and lower expression of miR-17-3p (p < 0.05) compared with those of the normal group (p*** < 0.001; p* < 0.05). c The ROC curve shows good diagnostic significance for circRNA_104670 and miR-17-3p, with AUC values of 0.96 and 0.91, respectively. d, e The circRNA_104670 and miR-17-3p expression levels are significantly correlated with the Pfirmman scores (r = 0.63; p = 0.00; r = −0.62; p = 0.00).
