Fig. 3From: RNA sequencing of blood in coronary artery disease: involvement of regulatory T cell imbalanceRelationship between TRACs and transcripts identified for clinical risk factors. To determine whether the TRACs (CAD, LOW vs MID+ High, 198 transcripts) were sensitive to known risk factors for CAD, the 96 patients were separated into new groups based on their current smoking (yielding 381 transcripts), aspirin use (324), dyslipidemia (250), age (41), sex (81), and BMI (198). In the case of age, sex, and BMI (right cluster), only the LOW CAD patients were analyzed (n = 48) to prevent confounding with CADBack to article page
