Fig. 3From: Bronchoalveolar cytokine profile differentiates Pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis patients from other smoking-related interstitial lung diseasesPrincipal Component Analysis of cytokine expression in ILDs. A PCA score plot shows separation of ILD based on first and second principal component scores. Each dot represents a sample projected in the two main principal components (PC1 and PC2); the dots are colored according to the group they belong to. B PCA loading plot shows the cytokines responsible for the differences between the groups. Labels are only shown for cytokines whose loading vectors on PC1 and PC2 exceeded a magnitude of 0.3Back to article page
