Table 2 The relationship of DNMT1 expression with the number of methylated genes
Number of methylated genes | DNMT1-overexpressed cases | Odds ratio (CI 95%) | |
|---|---|---|---|
N (%) | Fold change (mean ± SD) | ||
1 (n = 35) | 13 (37.1) | 1.52 ± 1.12 | 1 |
2 (n = 19) | 11 (57.9) | 2.12 ± 1.56 | 2.3 (0.7-7.2) |
3 (n = 16) | 9 (56.2) | 2.02 ± 1.78 | 2.1 (0.6-7.2) |
4 (n = 10) | 6 (60) | 3.61 ± 1.89 | 2.5 (0.6-10.7) |
5 (n = 11) | 7 (63.6) | 3.06 ± 1.55 | 2.9 (0.7-12.9) |
6 (n = 7) | 6 (85.7) | 4.14 ± 1.28 | 10.1 (1.1-93.9)* |
