Figure 3

Heat map visualization of the 6 identified and selected proteins. Columns represent the patients divided into 2 fixed groups (group 0: control; and group 1: case). Rows above the patients represent the 6 proteins that were gathered based on their expression profile. Cells are coloured based on the protein abundance. Red represents a high abundance, while blue indicates a low abundance. The coloured bars below the patients represent the different clinical parameters detailed in Table 1 with 0 = no and 1 = yes, except for sex (0 = women and 1 = men) or when values are indicated. ace_i: angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor.
