Fig. 1From: Sex-specific differences in plasma lipid profiles are associated with Gulf War IllnessHeatmap visualization of phospholipids and neutral lipids in plasma of GWI cases and controls. The heatmaps represent the average concentrations relative to male controls of the A total level of each lipid classes, B lipids stratified by their degree of unsaturation and C lipids containing arachidonic acid (AA) or docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) as well as their AA-containing lipids/DHA-containing lipids ratio in each group. Black asterisks indicate significant differences between GWI cases and their sex-matched controls (p < 0.05). Red asterisks indicate significant differences between males and females within the same diagnostic group (p < 0.05)Back to article page
