Non-normalized levels of NPPB exhibited a marginally significant difference between failed and non-failed samples (p = 0.058).
Normalizing NPPB expression to TPT1 and EEF1A1 gave a modestly significant difference in NPPB levels between failed and non-failed myocardium that is more likely to reflect the true level of expression of NPPB in these two groups.
