NTHi killing activity in BALF. A Contingency plot of killing activity between COPD patients and healthy volunteers. B Taxonomic landscape at the family level by killing activity (with killing activity: n = 22 patients, 44 samples; no killing activity: n = 7 patients, 14 samples). C LEfSe LDA score plot by NTHi killing activity (LDA score minimum = 2.0, p = 0.05; with killing activity: n = 22 patients, 44 samples; no killing activity: n = 7 patients, 14 samples). D A bubble plot depicting top and bottom 20 differentially expressed proteins ranked by the log fold-changes (with killing activity: n = 19 patients, 33 samples; No killing activity: n = 7 patients, 13 samples). E Comparison of Haptoglobin protein expression by killing activity (with killing activity: n = 19 patients, 33 samples; no killing activity: n = 7 patients, 13 samples)
