Representative mass spectra showing peaks in the Reflectron Positive (RP) mode. The upper and lower panels show peak patterns for representative plasma samples from HEV patients and healthy controls, respectively. Peaks that are upregulated or down regulated in patients and controls in the m/z range of 600 to 2600 are shown. The peaks are marked at their respective m/z values; numbers in bold indicate the discriminating peaks. Averaged mass spectra were generated by ClinPro Tools software (V2.0) using spectra showing the highest number of peaks and signal-to-noise ratios. All spectra were baseline-subtracted, smoothed, normalised and realigned.
