Separation of the blood sample between the baseline and follow-up in the two different groups. (a) This PLS-DA score plot shows that in the ATG, the plasma of two time points can be easily and clearly separated using the target metabolite information; (b) in the ITG, the plasma of two time points cannot be separated from each using the target metabolite information; (c) in the ATG, the dendrogram shows the clustering of the two groups using PLS-DA analysis; (d) while in the ITG, the dendrogram does not show significant clustering of the two groups.
