Heat map of a subset of the disease–cell-type associations identified by the GSC method. The darker the shade of green, the stronger the association. P values have been corrected using the Benjamini–Hochberg procedure for multiple testing. Each cell type and disease is involved in at least two associations with q<0.1. Cell types and diseases have been clustered using complete-linkage hierarchical clustering. Additional file 9: Figure S5 contains the complete set of associations identified. MDEPC: monocyte-derived endothelial progenitor cell, MLNS: mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome, MID: monocyte immature derived, PDCO: pulmonary disease, chronic obstructive, PIDC: primary idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, SARS: severe acute respiratory syndrome, SSP: subacute sclerosing panencephalitis
