Gene expression decision tree model constructed from log2CPM cutoffs derived from ROC curve evaluation. A Combined type I interferon genes (HERC6, IFI6, ISG15, and MX1) serve as the root of the decision tree, with an additive log2CPM cutoff of 66.093. Individuals with a value above the threshold are marked as needing BRD treatment, and below the threshold move to the LOC100297044 leaf. Those within the LOC100297044 leaf below a threshold of 9.952 are marked as needing BRD treatment, and above the threshold move to the CFB leaf. Those within the CFB leaf above a threshold of 10.058 are marked as needing BRD treatment, and those below the threshold are considered Healthy. B Diagnostic accuracy table for the assessment of identified Healthy and BRD individuals. C Diagnostic accuracy table for the assessment of identified Treated_2+, Treated_1, and Healthy individuals
