In tmod: Feature Set Enrichment Analysis for Metabolomics and Transcriptomics

#' Modules for metabolic profiling

#' Feature and data sets for metabolic profiling
#'
#' The module set "modmetabo" can be used with tmod to analyse metabolic profiling
#' data. The clusters defined in this set are based on hierarchical clustering
#' of metabolic compounds from human serum and have been published in a paper on 
#' metabolic profiling in tuberculosis by
#' Weiner et al. (2012).
#' 
#' For an example analysis, "tbmprof" is a data set containing metabolic profiles
#' of serum isolated from tuberculosis (TB) patients and healthy individuals. The tbmprof is
#' a data frame containing observations in rows and metabolite id's
#' (corresponding to the id's in the modmetabo object). See examples below.
