Discriminant loadings of variables indicating lipids and isoprostanoids included in discriminant analysis 2 (DA2) with percentage of variance, Wilks’s lambda, and the significance of each discriminant function.
| Function | ||
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 2 | |
| F2-IsoPs | 0.445 * | −0.373 |
| LCPn-6 | −0.199 * | −0.103 |
| F3-IsoPs | −0.089 | 0.544 * |
| F4-NeuroPs | 0.418 | 0.510 * |
| LCPn-3 | 0.119 | −0.273 * |
| Percentage of variance | 91.9% | 8.1% |
| Wilks’ lambda | 0.023 | 0.407 |
| Significance | <0.001 | <0.001 |
The variables are ordered by the absolute size of the correlation within the function. * Indicates the largest absolute correlation between each variable and any discriminant function. IsoP, isoprostane; LCP, long-chain fatty acid; NeuroP, neuroprostane.
