Metabolites with a significantly different concentration trend in the NAFLD group compared to the NL group.

Group	Class	Increased Levels	Decreased Levels
Lipids and derivatives	Acylcarnitines		Acetyl-carnitine, Hydroxybutyryl-carnitine
	Diacylglycerols (DG)	DG 34:1, DG 36:2
	Lyso-phosphatidylethanolamines (LPE)	LPE 20:3
	Phosphatidylcholines (PC)	PC 32:1, PC 32:2, PC 34:4, PC 36:0	PC 34:1, PC (O-32:1), PC (O-34:1)
	Phosphatidylethanolamines (PE)	PE 34:1, PE 40:6

One-way ANOVA was used to identify significant differences. Data of concentration in log fold change (FC) and p-values, as well as the mean and standard deviation of each metabolite in each group, are given in Tables S1 and S2.
