Interpretive Criteria for Reporting MLH1 Promoter Hypermethylation Status
| Analytical result | Clinical interpretation |
|---|---|
| β Values for all four MLH1 CpG sites greater than or equal to their respective cutoffs | MLH1 promoter hypermethylation positive |
| β Values of less than four of the MLH1 CpG greater than or equal to their respective cutoffs | MLH1 promoter hypermethylation negative |
CpG, cytosine-guanine dinucleotide.
