Fig. 5From: Metabolome and microbiome of chronic periapical periodontitis in permanent anterior teeth: a pilot studyPLS-DA and 3D PLS-DA statistical analysis models of periapical periodontitis. A PLS-DA statistical analysis models of periapical periodontitis in positive ion mode; B PLS-DA statistical analysis models of periapical periodontitis in negative ion mode; C 3D PLS-DA statistical analysis models of periapical periodontitis in positive ion mode; D 3D PLS-DA statistical analysis models of periapical periodontitis in negative ion mode. Red, green, and purple spots respectively represent the samples of periapical periodontitis at grade I, grade II, and grade III. Each scatters represents a sample. The closer the scatter is, the smaller of the difference between the samples existsBack to article page
