Biological markers differentially regulated in MUO, MHO and NW subjects associate with a number of clinical variables, especially body composition- and lipid-related. The heatmap displays Spearman’s rho (ρ) correlation coefficient for clinical variables (x axis) vs significant variables (y axis), as seen in Figs. 1, 2 and 3. Correlations were calculated using all three groups combined.
