In the literature

Consistent with commonly accepted thresholds for microdilution susceptibility studies, 2-fold MIC differences were attributed to technical variability; therefore, while we recognize that consistent 2-fold MIC reductions could suggest an overall trend toward increased susceptibility, only MIC differences of ≥ 4-fold were considered biologically meaningful.
Therefore, we performed a comprehensive correlation analysis using the following indices of treatment sensitivity and sought to obtain an overall trend: (i) the surviving fraction at all examined dose points, except 5 μM cisplatin (i.e., 2, 4, 6, and 8 Gy for X-rays, 1, 2, 3, and 4 Gy for carbon ions, and 0.2 and 1 μM for cisplatin).
