(*): The four miRNAs were evaluated together. In bold and underlined are the highest AUC values for the group comparison. Only AUC>0.7 is presented, except for NT x TN, using miR-150-5p. Sensitivity and specificity are presented as percentages (%). BC, breast cancer; NT, adjacent non-tumor tissue; LA, luminal A; TNBC, triple-negative breast cancer; and (--) not evaluated.
