  1. Percentage (ER- > ER+): the fraction of microRNAs with ARR < 1 and t-score < 0, indicating that the microRNAs show higher regulatory activity in ER- than in ER+ samples, as consistently supported by both the ARR method and RE-score expression comparison method. Percentage (ER- < ER+): the fraction of microRNAs with RR > 1 and t-score > 0. These microRNAs show higher regulatory activity in ER+ samples, as supported by both the ARR method and the RE-score expression comparison method. Spearman correlation: the correlation between the ARR value and t-score (ER-/ER+).
