Patient Characteristics | Correlation Coefficient r | p-Value | Statistical Test |
---|---|---|---|
Sex (female/male) | n.d. | 0.676 | ANOVA |
Age | 0.519 | <0.01 | Non-parametric correlation |
OS | −0.214 | 0.294 | Non-parametric correlation |

Correlation of RPS27 mRNA expression with patients’ characteristics was examined by non-parametric tests (Spearman’s Rho). Expression differences were examined by ANOVA (ddCT-values, posthoc test: Scheffe procedure or Dunnet T3). Significant results are shown in bold. IDHmut glioma = isocitrate dehydrogenase mutant astrocytic tumor with the histological appearance of WHO grade II and III gliomas; OS = overall survival; n.d. = not determined.
