Figure 1

Protein spectra and hierarchical cluster after profiling with CM10 beads. A. Protein spectra of masterpool urine (upper panel), a non-delirium patient (middle panel) and a delirium patient (lower panel). The x-axis depicts m/z values in Dalton; the y-axis shows the relative peak intensity. B. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering determines whether patient groups can be differentiated solely based on their urine protein profile. On the right hand side the samples are represented. The lengths of the horizontal lines represent the resemblance of the spectra; the shortest lines represent the most alikeness between samples. In this hierarchic cluster our masterpool can be clearly distinguished from the ICU patients, but there is no distinction between delirium and non-delirium patients.
