Number of microRNAs (miRNAs) Demonstrating Consistent Directional Change in Expression on the Intervention Side Compared to the Control Side by NanoString miRNA Profiling
Délai: Pre-procedure (baseline); 30 to 45 days post-control side procedure (study Days 30 to 45); 30 to 45 days post-intervention side procedure (study Days 75 to 90)

Punch biopsies of periauricular skin obtained pre-procedure (baseline), post-control side procedure, and post-intervention side procedure will undergo RNA extraction and miRNA expression profiling by NanoString miRNA technology at a blinded contract laboratory.
Raw Reporter Code Count (RCC) files will be background-normalized using negative-control probe thresholds, and low-expressing miRNAs will be removed.
Percent-change from baseline will be calculated separately for the control and intervention sides.
A tiered filtering algorithm will identify miRNAs meeting cross-subject directional consistency and a magnitude threshold on the net-effect calculation.
The total number of miRNAs meeting these pre-specified criteria will be the reported endpoint.
Descriptive breakdowns of the identified miRNAs will be reported in tables.
