Fig. 1. The effect of genotype and viral load on detection.

Fig. 1

The central lines indicate median with interquartile range as error bars, and each point on the graph represents the mean of a sample run in duplicate. False negative samples were recorded as time to positive reaction at 45 min. Statistical analysis was performed using a one-sided non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis with Dunn’s multiple comparisons test (one-sided). *p ≤ 0.05, **p ≤ 0.01, ***p ≤ 0.001, ****p ≤ 0.0001. a HCV RNA samples detection based on genotype (Gt): Gt1 (grey square, n = 26), Gt2 (white and black disc, n = 14), Gt3 (grey triangle, n = 23), Gt4 (grey lozenge, n = 22), Gt5 (black disc, n = 3), Unknown (grey inverse triangle, n = 10). Gt1 vs Gt3, p < 0.0001, Gt1 vs Gt4, p < 0.0001, Gt1 vs Unknown, p = 0.1524, Gt2 vs Gt3, p = 0.0101, Gt2 vs Gt4, p = 0.0284, Gt3 vs Gt5, p = 0.1846, Gt4 vs Gt5, p = 0.2814. All remaining groups had p values of >0.9999. b HCV cDNA samples detection based on genotype; Gt1 (grey square, n = 26), Gt2 (white and black disc, n = 14), Gt3 (grey triangle, n = 23), Gt4 (grey lozenge, n = 22), Gt5 (black disc, n = 3), Unknown (grey inverse triangle, n = 10).
