Extended Data Fig. 5: Viral load is not the sole viral factor that impact RSV disease severity.
a, Total viral load and total disease severity score were compared between cbDVG+ (n=18) and cbDVG- (n=38) individuals in Cohort 3. Data are shown as mean±s.e.m. b, Total viral load and total disease severity scores were correlated within cbDVG+ (n=17) and cbDVG- (n=37) group separately in Cohort 3. One outlier in each group was eliminated upon testing using Grubbs’ test in Prism. P value was tested from the correlation between total clinical scores and viral load using nonparametric spearman correlation. Dashed line represent the 95% confidence for the slopes. c, In Cohort 2, viral load was compared between non-hospitalized (n=73) and hospitalized (n=27) individuals. Data are shown as mean±s.e.m. No significance upon two-tailed Mann-Whitney test.
