Table 2. Relationship of β-catenin protein localization and miR-221 protein expression in pterygia.

β-catenin MiR-221 p value
Low
(n=48) (%) High
(n=72) (%)
Negative/ Membrane (n=94) 45 (93.8) 49 (68.1)
Nuclei/Cytoplasm (n=26) 3 (6.2) 23 (31.9) 0.001

β-catenin analyzed in this study is based on prior pterygium samples.6 The Fisher’s exact test was applied for statistical analysis. A P < 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. Coefficient of determination (R^2)>0.8.
