A Novel Host-Proteome Signature for Distinguishing between Acute Bacterial and Viral Infections
Fig 2
The proteins TRAIL, IP-10 and CRP are differentially expressed in bacterial, viral and non-infectious patients.
Box plots for TRAIL (A), IP-10 (B), and CRP (C), measured over the entire study cohort (n = 765) are presented. Red line and circle correspond to group median and average respectively; t-test p-values between bacterial and viral groups and between infectious (bacterial and viral) vs non-infectious (including healthy subjects) are depicted.
