  1. a) Since ERCC1, OGG1 and RAI expression is expressed as a ratio, normalized, to 18S rRNA expression, it is unit-less.
  2. b) Comparison of the expression levels in lesions and normal colonic mucosa from the same persons.
  3. c) The adenomas are divided in groups according to mild/moderate dysplasia or severe dysplasia.
