Table 1 Differentially expressed gene numbers reported by different multiple tests.

The raw cel files of these three data sets [21, 23, 25] were downloaded from the NCBI GEO database (GSE7146, GSE7333, GSE4107) and were preprocessed by the GC-RMA method. Two groups in each data set were tested by two-tailed t test assuming equal variance. All multiple tests and raw p- values were applied at the same significance level of α = 0.05.
