Overall correlation between the microarray and frequency-based expression measures was modest.
Phenotypic correlations between the CAST and language measures were modest, and were −0.14 (Syntax), −0.15 (FL, Pragmatics), and −0.16 (Vocabulary) (P < 0.01).
Although the concordance was high for classification into positive and negative categories, the associations between the quantitative HER2 mRNA expression by RT-PCR and semiquantitative central IHC and FISH measures was modest and there were broad ranges in HER2 expression level by RT-PCR within each IHC/FISH category.
