The analytical results above show that CD38 can distinguish admirably different phases for Dengue patients and has a higher distinguishable value than CDKN1C. Although we consider serotypes (serotype I–IV), results are similar among three comparison groups (C vs EA, C vs LA, EA vs LA) (Additional file 2: Figure S2, Additional file 3: Figure S3). The gene discussed is CD38; the disease is dengue disease.
