Expression of hsa_circ_0004099 and analysis results of clinically relevant indicators The expression level of hsa_circ_0004099 in patients with AIS (0.28 [0.17–0.40]) was lower than that in normal individuals (1.43 [0.99–2.08]), as determined using RT-PCR verification (Fig 2A), consistent with the expression level of hsa_circ_0004099 in the circRNA gene array.
