Abstract: A method of analyzing biological data containing expression values of a plurality of polypeptides in the blood of a subject. The method comprises: calculating a distance between a segment of a curved line and an axis defined by a direction, the distance being calculated at a point over the curved line defined by a coordinate along the direction. The method further comprises correlating the distance to the presence of, absence of, or likelihood that the subject has, a bacterial infection. The coordinate is defined by a combination of the expression values, wherein at least 90% of the segment is between a lower bound line and an upper bound line.

Abstract: A method of determining an infection type in a subject is disclosed. The method comprises measuring the concentration of a first determinant selected from the group consisting of the determinants which are set forth in Table 1 and a second determinant selected from the group of the determinants which are set forth in Table 2 in a subject derived sample, wherein the concentration is indicative of the infection type.

Abstract: A method of classifying the severity of a coronaviral infection of a subject is disclosed. The method comprises measuring the TRAIL and/or IP10 protein level in a body liquid sample of the subject, wherein the level is indicative of the severity of the coronaviral infection. Managing treatments for coronaviral infections are also disclosed as well as measuring contagiousness of infections.

Abstract: Methods of determining infection type are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises measuring the amount of a determinant which is set forth in Tables 1 or 2 in a sample derived from the subject, wherein said amount is indicative of the infection type.

Abstract: A method of determining a management course for treating a subject showing symptoms of a disease is disclosed. The method comprises measuring the TRAIL protein level in a blood sample of the subject, wherein when the TRAIL level is below a predetermined amount, the subject is treated as a high-risk patient.

Abstract: A method of measuring risk assessment in a patient with appendicitis is disclosed. The method comprises: (a) measuring the TRAIL protein level in a blood sample of the patient; and (b) providing a risk assessment based on the TRAIL protein level.
