  1. Results of the multi-network gene community detection (MNGCD) analysis reported separately for stable-state and exacerbation conditions combined with presence (positive) and absence (negative) of bacterial infection. The p values of the hypergeometric enrichment are corrected by Benjamini-Hochberg method (significance p < 0.01). For multiple communities enriched with the same Hallmark term, the minimum p value for that repetition was taken and p values of the 20 iterations were then log-averaged (details in Supplementary information section 3).
  2. COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, MSigDB molecular signatures database, NS not significant.
  3. *p value was significant in more than 80% of the iterations but floating.
