From the 112 lncRNAs present in the top 15% most connected genes, there are five lncRNAs (RP11-159C21.4, RP11-179H18.5, RP11-302F12.1, RP3-486D24.1 and RPL13AP7) that showed an average local similarity above the median similarity of the enriched genes (as described in Materials and Methods) and are also deregulated in sepsis in the same direction (i.e., up- or down-regulated) both in elderly and adult co-expression networks (Figure 3A and Table 2). Here, RPL13AP7 is linked to Sepsis.
