Viral detection and viral biomarker qPCR results with RNA-seq subject selection. Expression of CCL8 and CXCL11 in 161 subjects was screened by qPCR. Respiratory viruses were detected by qPCR in the samples colored red.; all of those subjects were then sequenced with RNA-seq. Samples colored in orange show the two subjects with suspected viral infection, despite viral qPCR negative results, based on the expression of CCL8 and CXCL11; both of those subjects were selected for RNA sequencing. Samples colored in blue represent subjects with no respiratory viruses identified with qPCR and selected for the RNA-seq part of the study. The remaining samples (in gray) represent subjects with no respiratory viruses identified with qPCR and not selected for the RNA-seq part of the study. Shape of the points represents asthma status, while the size corresponds to 2(−Ct) value for virus detection by qPCR
