  1. Adjusted p-values and linear regression model coefficients (β), testing hypotheses whether expression of ACE2, TMPRSS2, BSG and FURIN differ between smokers vs. non-smokers (columns 1,2) and asthmatics vs. healthy individuals (columns 3,4). The linear regression models were controlled for the linear effect of age, sex, sample type, and dataset
