Extended Data Fig. 2

a. Number of metabolites per metabolic categories based on annotation in the HMDB database. The x-axis indicates number of metabolites per category. The number of metabolites is also shown. The y-axis indicates metabolic categories. b. Inter-correlation between metabolites in the LLD baseline samples. Rows and columns represent metabolites. Color scheme represents the Spearman correlation coefficient. c. Comparison of metabolite concentrations between un-targeted FI-MS and LC-MS/MS platforms. The x-axis indicates metabolic abundance determined by LC-MS/MS. The y-axis indicates metabolic abundance determined by FI-MS. Each gray dot represents one sample. The red dashed line is the best fit line of linear regression with 95% confidence interval (CI). Spearman correlation coefficient between two measurements and the corresponding P value (two-sided) are shown. d. Comparison of metabolite concentrations between un-targeted FI-MS and NMR platforms. The x-axis indicates metabolic abundance determined by NMR and the y-axis indicates metabolic abundance determined by FI-MS. Each gray dot represents one sample. The red dashed line is the best fit line of linear regression with 95% CI. Spearman correlation coefficients between two measurements and the corresponding P value (two-sided) are shown.
