Figure 4

SUS plot for the comparison of the correlation of liver fat and total body fat with metabolic NMR data. Each symbol (including the dots) represents a spectral bin from the NMR data. This plot indicates a similar relationship for the metabolites 3-methyl-2-oxovalerate, (, triangles), 3-hydroxybutyrate (♦, diamonds) and alanine (▪, squares), while the BCAAs (, inverted triangles) have a higher correlation with the total body fat than with liver fat.
