Boxplots of miRNAs expression in normal brain tissues (NBT), WHO grade II gliomas (II) and WHO grade III and IV gliomas (III+IV). Expression levels are expressed as: target miRNA/RNU48 multiplied by 1000. The boxes mark the interquartile range, (interval between the 25th and 75th percentile). The lines inside the boxes denote median values, the symbol * denote the outliers. #NBT vs II vs III+IV comparison by Kruskall Wallis Test; §II vs III+IV comparison by Mann Whitney test.
