A table listing the number of lipid metabolites sharing the same genetic locus in serum and plasma samples from the AIDHS cohort. The dataset is a 14.8 KB XLSX file authored by Madhusmita Rout and last updated on April 23, 2026. It is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license on figshare.
Use Cases
- Compare genetic influence on lipid profiles between serum and plasma based on the metabolite locus counts.
- Identify polygenic lipid traits based on the number of metabolites sharing a genetic locus.
- Prioritize genetic loci for functional validation based on the breadth of their metabolic associations.
Strengths
- Clear focus on a specific biological relationship between genetic loci and lipid metabolites.
- Provides a direct comparison between two common biofluids (serum and plasma).
- Dataset is openly licensed under CC-BY-4.0 for reuse.
Limitations
- Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
- Row count and column-level documentation are absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- The 14.8 KB file size indicates a very limited scope, likely containing summary counts rather than raw data.
Provenance
- Source
- figshare, authored by Madhusmita Rout.
- Collection Method
- Likely derived from genetic association analysis of lipidomics data from the AIDHS cohort.
