CFHR4 and small cell lung carcinoma: Among these proteins, we found dysregulation of coagulation factor XIII A (Log2 FC =  − 1.1, p = 0.0003, AUC = 0.82, 95% CI: 0.69–0.96) and complement factor H-related protein 4 (Log2 FC = 1.2, p = 0.0005, AUC = 0.82, 95% CI; 0.67–0.97) in SCLC patients compared to healthy individuals.
