Plasma marker analysis reveals distinct clusters in COVID-19 patients. Cluster analysis of maximal levels (NPX) of 19 proteins (the proteins presented in Figs. 2 and 3 except IL7 due to low overall levels) in 60 individuals (14 ICU-s of which 4 developed ARDS, 22 non-ICU-s, 6 mild cases and 18 controls). The analysis identified 4 clusters of individuals and starting from the top, the first cluster included ICU patients with ARDS and 1 patient (COVID49) who died before receiving ARDS diagnosis. The second cluster contained 16 (1 ARDS, 7 ICU and 7 non-ICU) patients. Cluster three included mostly non-ICUs and cluster four mostly controls.
