Fig. 2From: The expression and clinical significance of miR-1226 in patients with periodontitisCorrelation between miR-1226 expression level and the probing pocket depth (A), attachment loss (B), and MMP-8 concentration (C) of periodontitis patients. The probing pocket depth, attachment loss, and MMP-8 concentration of periodontitis patients was negatively associated with the expression level of miR-1226. Probing pocket depth: r = -0.806; attachment loss: r = -0.764; MMP-8 concentration: r = -0.654; all P < 0.001 evaluated by Pearson correlation analysisBack to article page
