Fig. 1From: Associations of circulating plasma microRNAs with age, body mass index and sex in a population-based studyAssociation q-values of miRNAs in two-step regression models with adjustment for technical and biological parameters. The -log10(q) values of the linear regression analysis of miRNA levels and phenotypes age (blue rectangle), BMI (green triangle) and sex (red circle) are depicted. Q-values were obtained via Benjamini-Hochberg (BH) multiple testing correction of raw p-values. The dotted line marks the significance threshold of q = 0.05. Plasma miRNAs are lexicographically arranged on the x-axis (though not labelled individually)Back to article page
