Characteristics of the samples and tissues used in this study. a Distribution of PMI values (in minutes) with tissues ordered by the median value. Whole blood contains samples with negative time corresponding to samples obtained pre-mortem. b Distribution of Pearson correlation between PMI and RIN values. Esophagus, Liver, Colon, Ovary, Uterus, Vagina, and Heart are the tissues in which RIN is more affected by PMI (r < −0.5), while Skin, Pituitary, Spleen and Nerve are the ones in which is less affected (r > −0.1)
