Fig. 3

Adipose tissue ACE2 expression residuals (adjusted for age, BMI and RNA-Seq technical covariates) are shown in SARS-CoV-2 seropositive TwinsUK participants who reported presenting one or more classic or severe COVID-19 symptoms compared to seropositive individuals who did not display any of the classic or severe COVID-19 symptoms. Boxplots display the median and inter-quartile range (IQR), with whiskers corresponding to ±1.5*IQR. Effect size and P value were calculated using a logistic regression model adjusting for current age and BMI.
