Five sample genes contain two set of gene expression for two groups of people: five insulin-sensitive humans (IS) and five insulin-resistant (IR) humans. Each set of gene expression contains five gene expression values. Four values are calculated for each gene: d-value, p-value for FM-test, p-value for t-test, and p-value for rank sum test.
