IDThe unique data number of the substance in this qualitative analysis
MS2 nameThe substance name obtained by qualitative matching analysis of secondary mass spectrometry
MS2 scoreThe score of the second-level match, with the value [0, 1]
rtChromatographic retention time of the substance
mzMaterial characteristics mass charge ratio of ions
SuperClassClassification information of the substance in the HMDB database
TypeThe matching mode includes MS2 forward/reverse matching (MS2 forward/reverse), first-order average molecular weight/single isotope molecular weight matching and no matching
MEAN OOThe mean of the relative quantitative value of the substance in one of the experimental groups within the group comparison
MEAN XXThe mean of the relative quantitative value of the substance in the other experimental group within the group comparison
VIPThe substance in the group was compared to the OPLS-DA model obtained by the variable projection significance
-valueThe p-value obtained by the t-test of this substance in the group comparison, p-value = probabilityof hypothesis being correct but rejected = number of negative results/total number of results, is a test probability against the sample data
Q-valueThe hypothesis test statistic (p-value) is the result after the correction of multiple hypothesis test. Q value = the probability of being rejected but correct = the number of false-positive results/thenumber of presumed positive results. It is a test probability of the inference obtained from statistical test and the re-statistics of p-value
FOLD CHANGEThe substance in this group was compared with the multiple relationship between the two groups of experiments
LOG_FOLDCHANGEFOLD CHANGE takes the logarithm base 2
