From: miRNA-23b as a biomarker of culture-positive neonatal sepsis
Change in the miRNA-23b expression levels in newborns at two different stages. Scatter plot values represent the miR-23b level for the negative control of EOS (n = 9) and the negative control of LOS (n = 6) in terms of the newborns, measured by (2-ΔΔCT). The line inside the boxes corresponds to the median values. LOS/ Bac-: negative haemoculture in LOS, Co/NH before 72 h: negative haemoculture in EOS, where patients’ age was less than 72 h, Co/NH / before 72 h: negative haemoculture in LOS, where patients’ age was more than 72 h. *p = 0.011 via the Mann-Whitney U test
