Results of the comparison between head and neck tumour (HN-Ca) and breast cancer patients (Ma-Ca) within a generalised estimating equations (GEE) analysis, adjusted for laboratory, irradiation dose and sensitivity group.

Columns represent the assays, the target parameter names, the estimated parameter value, the standard error of the parameter estimate, the confidence intervals and the associated p-value for testing the significance of the parameter to the model. P-values less than 0.05 are considered significant (*). The estimator is a parameter that indicates the average value, on which the head and neck cancer patients have less or greater values compared to breast cancer patients.
