Fig 3. Mean decrease in accuracy (MDA) of top 15 urine metabolites.

Fig 3

MDA of the top 15 urine metabolites for the discrimination of meloxicam-treated (n = 5) and saline-controls (n = 6) for each time points (2–5) after the administration of meloxicam derived from random forest analysis. The higher the MDA value the more important a metabolite is to the performance of the model. Urine metabolites with a mean decrease in accuracy ≥ 0.004 in at least one post-treatment time point (2–5) were considered for inclusion in the predictive model.
