• All values are normalized in terms of raw area counts.

• “Fold change Month 3 vs. Baseline” denotes <month 3 level> divided by <baseline level> of each biochemical (i.e. fold change of 0.76 denotes a 24% decrease).

• Shading corresponds to degree of change. Thresholds for color intensity are as follows: green denotes ≤ 0.65 fold change, dark green denotes 0.65 - 0.95 fold change, black denotes 0.95 – 1.05 fold change, dark red denotes 1.05 – 1.35 fold change, red denotes ≥ 1.35 fold change.
