Fig. 2

A heat map visualizing the somatometric, biochemical, and metabolomic data. Each row represents a feature measured at 12 weeks, and each column represents a sample. All of the features of the two groups are projected on the heat map. The row Z-score or scaled expression value of each feature is plotted in the red-blue color scale. Red indicates high abundance, and blue indicates low abundance. The distance was measured using Euclidean, and the clustering algorithm was performed using Ward’s method
