Fig. 6: Quantitative PCR assessment of LEF1-AS1 in whole blood samples collected in PAXgene tubes from 84 NAPKON patients (41 survivors and 43 non-survivors).

A Correlation between qPCR and RNAseq data obtained with the FIMICS panel. The gray area displays the confidence interval. A Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient and a two-sided t-test p value are indicated. B Box/violin plots of LEF1-AS1 expression, which was decreased in deceased patients (n = 43 patients). The box is drawn from Q1 (25th percentile) to Q3 (75th percentile) with a horizontal line inside it to denote the median. The length of the whiskers indicate 1.5 times IQR (Interquartile range Q3–Q1). P-value is from a two-sided Student’s t-test.
