Correlated expression of circulating miRNAs. a Correlation plots show significant (p < 0.05) cross-correlated expression between miRNA pairs (hierarchically clustered) in each of the exposure groups in the second and third trimesters color-coded by Pearson’s correlation coefficient. b Histogram distributions of the number of significant miRNA cross-correlations (p < 0.05) in each of the 2000 bootstrap iterations at the second trimester and third trimester time points. The table shows the p values for the null hypothesis testing that the mean number of significant correlations in either the HEa or HEua group is not different from the UE group in the second and third trimesters.
