  1. Published host gene expression signatures varied in size and discovery cohort characteristics. Signatures were named using the first and last author’s initials, followed by the number of unique genes in the signature. Neonates include subjects <3 months of age; infants include subjects <3 years of age; Pediatrics includes subjects <18 years of age. aSignature is a subset of another published signature
