Comparison of BMP-2 production between transduced BMSCs and ASCs when grouped by sex. For male patients, 31 BMSC and 52 ASC samples were analyzed. For female patients, 32 BMSC and 54 ASC samples were analyzed. A chi-squared analysis was used to determine statistical significance. ø = statistically non-significant difference ().
