Fraction of total inter-sample variance in the HLCA core integrated embedding that correlates with specific covariates. Covariates are split into technical (left) and biological covariates (right). Cell types are ordered by the number of samples in which they were detected. Only cell types present in at least 40 samples are shown. Tissue sampling method represents the way a sample was obtained (for example, surgical resection or nasal brush). Donor status represents the state of the donor at the moment of sample collection (for example, organ donor, diseased alive or healthy alive). The heatmap is masked gray where fewer than 40 samples were annotated for a specific covariate or where only one value was observed for all samples for that cell type.
