On the basis of the median expression levels of co-expressed genes, we assigned the sepsis samples of the GSE13904 dataset to four stages: myc targets v2 (angiogenesis ≤ 0, myc targets v2 > 0), mixed (angiogenesis > 0, myc targets v2 > 0), quiescent (angiogenesis ≤ 0, myc targets v2 ≤ 0), angiogenesis (angiogenesis > 0, myc targets v2 ≤ 0) (Figure 4B). This evidence concerns the gene MYC and Sepsis.
