摘要:
A method of selecting an exon of an RNA whose expression level is informative with respect to infection type of a subject is disclosed. The method comprises comparing the expression level of the RNA in a sample derived from a bacterially-infected subject and a sample derived from a virally-infected subject at a plurality of exons, wherein the exon that provides a differential expression between the bacterially-infected subject above a predetermined level is selected as the exon of the RNA whose expression is informative with respect to infection type.
摘要:
A method of determining an infection type in a subject is disclosed. The method comprises measuring the concentration of a first determinant selected from the group consisting of the determinants which are set forth in Table 1 and a second determinant selected from the group of the determinants which are set forth in Table 2 in a subject derived sample, wherein the concentration is indicative of the infection type.

摘要:
A method of analyzing biological data containing expression values of a plurality of polypeptides in the blood of a subject. The method comprises: calculating a distance between a segment of a curved line and an axis defined by a direction, the distance being calculated at a point over the curved line defined by a coordinate along the direction. The method further comprises correlating the distance to the presence of, absence of, or likelihood that the subject has, a bacterial infection. The coordinate is defined by a combination of the expression values, wherein at least 90% of the segment is between a lower bound line and an upper bound line.
摘要:
Methods of diagnosing infections are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises measuring the amount of each of the polypeptides TRAIL and IP 10 and at least one additional polypeptide selected from the group consisting of IL-6 and PCT.
