PDQuest quantity table. The table is in the excel spreadsheet format (PDQuest.xls). Spots are numbered in rows. Means of logarithmic ratios method normalized spot densities in each gel are in columns. The paired gels from each sample (named according to the Table 1) are marked (a) respective (b), for example L40-sp-a, L40-sp-b.

Results of the GUHA analysis. The table is in the excel spreadsheet format (guha.xls). Hypotheses are numbered in rows. Antecedent column displays categorized spot intensities. Succedent column displays presence (= 1) or absence (= 0) of metastases at follow-up. Table column displays the contingency table evaluating cedents. Fisher quantifier column corresponds to Fisher's exact test.

Results of the R/maanova analysis. The table is in the excel spreadsheet format (maanova.xls). For each spot we show in adequate columns the number given by PDQuest software, log2 difference of log transformed means between metastases and non-metastases groups (fold change), nominal permutation p-values using F1 test statistics (F1 Pvalperm) and false discovery rate adjusted p-values for multiple testing (F1 adjPvalperm). Nominal permutation p-values using Fs test statistics (Fs Pvalperm) and false discovery rate-adjusted p-values for multiple testing (Fs adjPvalperm).
