The ∆∆Ct values of three miRNAs in VZV and various microbial infections compared with controls measured by TLDA.

miRNA	VZV/control	EV/control	MEV/control	BP/control
miR-197	−10.55	−13.88	−11.87	−10.01
miR-363	−7.09	0	0	0
miR-629	−3.59	0.12	2.01	6.39
miR-132	−12.58	0	−9.73	0
miR-122	−12.77	−9.67	−16.6	−8.58

VZV: varicella-zoster virus; EV: enterovirus; MEV: measles virus; BP: Bordetella pertussis. The different Ct value between two groups was calculated by ∆∆Ct method: ∆Ct_patient = CT_{target miRNA} − CT_cel-miR-238; ∆Ct_control = CT_{target miRNA} − CT_cel-miR-238; ∆∆Ct = ∆Ct_patient − ∆Ct_control.
