Figure 2
PCA score plot and OPLS score plots of 25 CHB patients of excess syndrome (▪), 19 CHB patients of deficiency syndrome (∆), and 24 healthy controls (*) based on the serum protein profiling detected from SELDI-TOF/MS or the clinicopathological data of each individuals. (a) PCA score plot among the control group and CHB groups of excess syndrome and deficiency syndrome; OPLS score plots (b) among the control group and CHB groups of excess syndrome and deficiency syndrome and (c) between excess syndrome group and deficiency syndrome group. (a)–(c) Models of score plots were constructed by the data from SELDI-TOF/MS. (d) Another OPLS score plot among the three groups using clinical parameters.
