Bayesian Independent Samples T-Test for ccRCC Patients and Controls (A). DCA Bayesian Mann-Whitney. (B) CA Bayesian Mann-Whitney. The probability wheel on top visualizes the evidence that the data provide for the two rival hypotheses. The two gray dots indicate the prior and posterior density at the test value. The median and the 95% central credible interval of the posterior distribution are shown in the top right corner. BF₁₀ = 29300 means very strong evidence support the alternative hypothesis. Note: Following the proposals made by Wetzels, van Ravenzwaaij, and Wagenmakers (2015), based on Jeffreys (1961), the Bayesian findings were interpreted as follows. (I) Clear evidence for the alternate hypothesis (extremely strong evidence: BF₁₀ > 100; very strong evidence: 30–100; strong evidence: 10–30; moderate evidence: 3–10). II) Anecdotal evidence for the alternate hypothesis: BF10 = 1–3; (III) No evidence: BF₁₀ = 1
