Metabolic Disturbances Identified in Plasma Samples from ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients

Figure 2

Score plots of partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) and validation of the model. Score plots discriminating the metabolic profiles in plasma samples between patients with STEMI versus controls (a). The model’s parameters were as follows: 3 latent variables, , and . The plot of the permutation test of PLS-DA of STEMI versus the control group (b). Model validation with the number of permutations equaling 200.
