For smoking, we did not investigate this information for control group, but there was no correction between smoking and CTEPH according to previous studies. For BMI, we did not investigate this information for control group. 160039K-1, 160039K-2, 160039K-3, 160039L-1, 160039J-6, 160039J-7, 160039J-8, 160039J-3, and 160039J-10 were chip number.
