From: Lipidomic alterations in human saliva from cystic fibrosis patients
Descriptive discriminant analysis of the salivary lipidome of patients with CF. (A) The supervised partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) shows the binary segregation in CF and controls according to component 1 4.2% and component 2 8.9%. (B) The 36 most discriminant features identified according to the Variable Importance in Projection score (VIP > 1.5). The VIP score are assigned according to component 1. The intensity of the colored boxes represents the relative abundance in each group. The concentrations of the identified lipids were normalized, log(10) transformed, and Pareto scaled.
