2 Fig 1 PCA and cluster analysis of patients with AD. A, PCA of Box-Cox normalized serum data reveals the presence of 4 likely clusters. Blue ovals are illustrative annotations representing 4 likely clusters. B, Eight PCs describe 50% of the variance, and 57 PCs describe 90% of the variance in the Box-Cox normalized serum data set. C, Generation of 4 clusters of patients with AD by using unsupervised k-means clustering of the 57 most important PCs into 4 clusters using a predefined seed value. Clinical characteristics (not included in the cluster analysis) were analyzed between the 4 clusters (Table II), and averages of serum analytes per cluster were calculated and tabulated to characterize the clusters (see Tables E2 and E3). This figure shows characterization of the 4 AD clusters. MIG, Monokine-induced by interferon-γ; TWEAK, TNF-like weak inducer of apoptosis.
