Here dist. denotes the pathway score’s distance from the median, divided by the scaled median absolute deviation. Pathways that are determined outliers (dist. 3) are marked with *. The direction of the change in COVID-19 (+/−), the number of associated EC features per pathway detected from functional profiling (#EC), and the pathway type are also shown.
