Correlation analyses. (a) Spearman correlation matrix of the P values [decreasing size of dots indicate less significant P values] and the correlation coefficients (r) of normalized miRNA expression levels in whole blood and serum considering all time points in all athletes. Scatter plot and linear regression of the Spearman correlation between (b) miR-127-3p and miR-210 in whole blood, (c) miR-494 and miR-210 in whole blood, (d) miR-127-3p and miR-494 in whole blood, (e) miR-127-3p and miR-133a in whole blood, (f) miR-127-3p and miR-210 in serum, (g) miR-127-3p and miR-494 in serum, and (h) miR-494 and miR-210 in serum. Red regression lines indicate significant (P < 0.05) correlations. n = 16 (4 time points of 4 athletes pooled). (i) Correlation coefficients (r) of Spearman correlations between normalized expression levels of miRNAs, anthropometric parameters and markers of exercise. For P values see Figure S2.
