An attempt is made to assess a set of biochemical, kinetic and anthropometric data for patients suffering from alcohol abuse (alcoholics) and healthy patients (non-alcoholics). The main goal is to identify the data set structure, finding groups of similarity among the clinical parameters or among the patients. Multivariate statistical methods (cluster analysis and principal components analysis) were used to assess the data collection. Several significant patterns of related parameters were found to be representative of the role of the liver function, kinetic and anthropometric indicators (conditionally named “liver function factor”, “ethanol metabolism factor”, “body weight factor”, and “acetaldehyde metabolic factor”). An effort is made to connect the role of kinetic parameters for acetaldehyde metabolism with biochemical, ethanol kinetic and anthropometric data in parallel.

The present study deals with the application of two major multivariate statistical approaches - Cluster Analysis (CA) and Principal Components Analysis (PCA) as an option for assessment of clinical data from diabetes mellitus type 2 patients. One hundred clinical cases of patients are considered as object of the statistical classification and modeling, each one of them characterized by 34 various clinical parameters. The goal of the study was to find patterns of similarity, both between the patients and the clinical tests. Each group of similarity is interpreted revealing at least five clusters of correlated parameters or five latent factors, which determine the data structure. Relevant explanation of the clustering is found based on the pattern of similarity like glucose level, anthropometric data, enzyme level, liver function, kidney function etc. It is assumed that this classification could be of help in optimizing the performance of clinical test for this type of patients and for designing a pattern for the role of the different groups of test in determining the metabolic syndrome of the patients.
