Fig. 5From: Profiling of the fecal microbiota and circulating microRNA-16 in IBS subjects with Blastocystis infection : a case–control studyComparison of the relative expression of circulating mir-16 in studied groups compared with Blastocystis-negative healthy subjects. Independent t test was employed to analyze statistical association. The analysis suggests a modulatory role of Blastocystis on the expression levels of mir-16 in IBS patients. *P value < 0.05; **P value < 0.01Back to article page
