Changes in lipid levels after alcohol intervention.
(A) Volcano plot showing changes in levels (mixed model estimate coefficients) for 252 lipids from hepatic vein after alcohol intervention. Statistical significance (y-axis) is plotted against the magnitude of change in the lipid levels after alcohol intervention (x-axis) to identify the most dynamic lipids that were also statistically significant. Different colours represent different lipid species, and larger dots represent the 24 lipids passing Bonferroni threshold (p <1.98×10-04). (B) Forrest plot showing magnitude of change after alcohol intervention (mixed model estimate coefficients) for the 24 lipids from hepatic vein selected from Fig. 3A. Cer, ceramide; DG, diglyceride; FFA, free fatty acid; HexCer, hexosylceramide; LacCer, lactosylceramides; LPC, lysophosphatidylcholine; LPE, lysophosphatidylethanolamine; NAFLD, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease; PC, phosphatidylcholine; PE, phosphatidylethanolamine; PI, phosphatidylinositol; SHexCer, sulfatides hexosylceramide; SM, sphingomyelin; TG, triglyceride.
