To study whether miR-1, miR-133, and miR-206 could represent bona fide markers for DMD, a case-by-case correlation analysis between miRNA levels and North Star Ambulatory Assessment (NSAA, Mazzone et al, 2010) was performed in 10 ambulating young DMD children (age range between 3 and 6 years) at the time of the molecular diagnosis.
However, in some cases partial correlation analysis is not reliable to detect the independent influence of various factors [ 6, 21].
Although we examined only the case of correlation analysis in this paper, subsequent analysis may call for different methods regression analysis, for example.
Therefore, in this case linear correlation analysis would be confusing.
However, the few existing integrative approaches are facing computational issues because of the 'large p, small n' problem as is the case of canonical correlation analysis (CCA; Hotelling, 1936) that requires to compute the inverse of singular matrices.
† Modeling period was shorter --Jan 4, 2004 to Jul 2, 2005 for Univariate Case Modeling and Cross Correlation Analysis.
In case of the 1 n correlation analysis, the morphological parameter fresh weight (FW) is chosen as the target parameter and correlations were calculated to all other metabolic parameters in the network.
To determine whether this was the case, we performed a correlation analysis examining the relationship between individual AQ scores and category selectivity in face-, scene-, and object-selective regions.
In certain cases, other methods that use correlation analysis might be preferred.
In the case of call traces, the correlation analysis presented in [25] is rather limited in terms of the number of radio measurements employed and no method for root-cause analysis was applied.
