Descriptive results of two workflows of massive parallel sequencing data processing: DESeq2 and limma. The table contains count of miRNAs reaching threshold of 500 reads (both raw and normalised) in each statistical analysis. Counts of miRNAs with fold-change over 1.4, p-value below 0.05 or 0.01 and number of normalised reads above 500 are displayed for each stage of epileptogenesis in both age groups respectively.
