Gene Expression Dynamics Inspector-generated mosaics of differentially expressed mitochondrial genes for the three septic shock subgroups. The 162 genes are depicted along the same coordinates across the three expression mosaics. Red intensity correlates with increased gene expression and blue intensity correlates with decreased gene expression. Clear differences in color patterns illustrate differential expression of mitochondrial genes across patient subgroups A, B, and C, with general downregulation in group A. Group A subjects have higher illness severity, higher mortality, and higher organ failure burden.
