What SAS procedure can be used to analyze associations between microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles and a continuous variable (e.g., tumor size or certain scoring scale). I am trying to use SAS to find an association between a continuous variable (e.g., tumor volume) and miRNA expression profiles (about 200 miRNAs) obtained from almost 30 subjects' blood samples using qPCR. I already tried using Genesifter.net but it seemed to work only with categorical variables. Additionally, most of the articles I find related to miRNA expression profiles seem to compare categorical variables (e.g., treatment/no treatment) while I am interested into continuous ones.
