Extended Data Fig. 2: Drivers of the concurrent DCC expansion.
From: Dissemination of Mycobacterium abscessus via global transmission networks
The bottom panel shows the expansion date distribution for each of the DCCs, as in Fig. 1d (number of samples from the posterior distribution: DCC1 = 2255, DCC2 = 2255, DCC3 = 2255, DCC4 = 2699, DCC5 = 2702, DCC6 = 2613, DCC7 = 2703). Boxplot centre lines show median value, upper and lower bounds show the 25th and 75th quantile, respectively, upper and lower whiskers show the largest and smallest values within 1.5 times the interquartile range above the 75th percentile and below the 25th percentile, respectively, and points show samples outside of the whisker range. The top panel shows factors within the CF population that likely drove DCC expansion. The middle panel shows the trend in cigarette sales in developed countries; each blue line is the trend in a single country and the black line is the average trend across countries combined.
