TLDR
The comparison of two treatments generally falls into one of the following two categories: (a) a number of replications for each of the two treatments, which are unpaired, or (b) we may have a series of paired comparisons, some of which may be positive and some negative as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract
The comparison of two treatments generally falls into one of the following two categories: (a) we may have a number of replications for each of the two treatments, which are unpaired, or (b) we may have a number of paired comparisons leading to a series of differences, some of which may be positive and some negative. The appropriate methods for testing the significance of the differences of the means in these two cases are described in most of the textbooks on statistical methods.

Frequent overexpression of the genes FXR1, CLAPM1 and EIF4G located on amplicon 3q26-27 in squamous cell carcinoma of the lung.

TL;DR: The analysis of 61 squamous cell lung carcinomas shows that the percentage of carcinomas with a 3q27.1 amplification increases in higher malignant tumors, and the understanding of the translation initiation that appears not to require eIF4E in lung carcinogenesis is contributed.

Comparative analysis of protein structure alignments.

TL;DR: The alignments produced by different methods tend to agree to a considerable extent, but the agreement is lower for the more challenging pairs, and the results for the comparison to reference alignments are encouraging, but indicate that there is still room for improvement.
