Statistics performed using t-test or two-way ANOVA and Bonferroni's test for multiple comparisons, as appropriate.
Post hoc analysis was carried out with the Student-Newman-Keuls test or Mann-Whitney U test with the Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons, as appropriate.
Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA, followed by Student-Newman-Keuls, or by Kruskal-Wallis followed by Mann–Whitney U test with the Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons, as appropriate.
For other data, statistical significance was determined using the unpaired t test or one-way ANOVA corrected for multiple comparisons as appropriate.
Data from quantitative western blots were analyzed using two-way ANOVA, followed by the Student-Newman-Keuls Method for pairwise multiple comparisons, as appropriate.
Data was compared with one-way ANOVA followed by Student Newman Keuls tests (parametric) or Kruskal-Wallis on ranks followed by Dunn's tests (non-parametric), to adjust for multiple comparisons as appropriate.
Statistical analysis was performed using paired or unpaired t test or one way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Newman-Keuls post-hoc test for multiple comparisons as appropriate.
Comparisons between groups were made by one-way or two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) with Fisher LSD method post-test analysis for pairwise multiple comparisons, as appropriate.
Many regulatory proteins were down-regulated across multiple comparisons as well as genes associated with the global signaling molecule, cyclic-di-guanosylmonophosphate (c-di-GMP).
Differences in categorical variables for survivors and non-survivors were assessed using the chi-square test or Fisher's exact and p-values adjusted for multiple comparisons as appropriate.
Statistical testing was carried out at the conventional two-tailed significance level of α = 0.05, corrected for multiple comparisons as appropriate.
