Dots are outliers (greater than upper quartile + 1.5 times interquartile range).
Eighteen genes were also differentially expressed (greater than one quartile difference) in the human and mouse tumors.
The remaining clusters are annotated as 'NREM sleep' if the median logarithm of EEG delta power of the cluster is greater than Pdelta quartile of the nonwake epochs and as 'REM sleep' when it is not.
Very short introns (less the 1 kb in length) were excluded, as well as very long introns (greater than (third quartile + (interquartile range × 1.5)) in length to minimize the outlier effects.
RESULTS Men and women with metabolic syndrome (29% overall), any of its component features, or higher (greater than upper quartile) insulin resistance (homeostasis model assessment) had more rapid BMI or weight gain than the rest of the cohort throughout infancy, childhood, and adolescence.
The dark line in the middle of the box represents the median of the distribution, while the dots are the outliers, where the definition for an outlier is a value which is less than the first quartile or greater than the third quartile by more than 1.5 times the interquartile range between quartile 3 and 1.
Genes with expression levels less than the first quartile, between the first and second quartiles, between the second and third quartiles, and greater than the third quartile were considered as very lowly, lowly, medium and highly expressed genes, respectively.
*: Number of subjects significantly greater than other quartiles.
Descriptive boxplot distribution statistics such as median, quartiles and outliers were generated with R. According to the canonical statistical definition, values greater than the 3rd quartile plus the inter quartile range (IQR) were considered outliers.
Conversely, a question with an IQV value greater than the third quartile of distribution was considered associated with the highest variability.
