Table 2.

Methods for the detection of RRM1 expression

Method RRM1 expression
No of studies (cases)
High Low
IHC 539 (43.8%) 692 (56.2%) 15 (1,231)
PCR 1,256 (55.5%) 1,009 (44.5%) 16 (2,265)
Total 1,795 (51.3%) 1,701 (48.7%) 31 (3,496)

Note: χ2 test indicated that there was significant difference between the two methods in the detection rate of RRM1 expression (χ2=43.46, P=0.000).

Abbreviations: IHC, immu nohistochemistry; RRM1, ribonucleotide reductase catalytic subunit M1.
