2. Figure 1
Biomarker levels over time, by treatment group. Box plots are shown at 3 time points for normal rectal mucosal levels of (A) prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), (B) spermidine-to-spermine ratio (Spd:Spm), and (C) putrescine. Y-axes are drawn on a logarithmic scale because the distributions of these variables are right-skewed. A closed star indicates a significant difference in the median between paired values from baseline, and an open star indicates a significant difference in the median between paired values from 12 months.

3. Figure 2
DFMO/sulindac efficacy, by biomarker levels. Participants were categorized according to their baseline levels of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and the spermidine-to-spermine ratio (Spd:Spm). Low versus high cut points were defined by the median biomarker levels in the study population. The table below the figure includes the number (and percentage) of participants with metachronous adenoma in each stratum. A Fisher's exact test was conducted to test for a significant difference between the 2 groups in the proportion of persons with metachronous adenoma.
