[Retracted] Analysis on Value of Applying Serum miR-144 and miR-221 Levels in Diagnosing Atherosclerosis

Figure 2

Between-group comparison of serum miR-221 and miR-144 levels ( ± s). (a) The between-group comparison of miR-221 expression levels. The horizontal axis denotes the AS group and control group, and the vertical axis denotes the level. The miR-221 expression level of the AS group and control group was 10.24 ± 2.31 and 3.12 ± 0.54, respectively, and indicates the significant between-group difference in the miR-221 expression levels (t = 21.841, ). (b) The between-group comparison of miR-144 expression levels. The horizontal axis denotes the AS group and control group, and the vertical axis denotes the level. The miR-144 expression level of the AS group and control group was 1.31 ± 0.16 and 0.25 ± 0.07, respectively, and indicates the significant between-group difference in the miR-144 expression levels (t = 44.122, ).
