TABLE 4.

The number of metabolites that were different before and after the PAPOLG genotypes 1 and 2 intervention in volunteers within the high-glucoraphanin broccoli arm (n = 19)1

1

All values are the number of metabolites within each class that reached the achieved statistical threshold (P < 0.05). Details of the metabolites and P values are provided elsewhere (see Supplemental Table S5 under “Supplemental data” in the online issue). t Tests were used to analyze differences in the log2 ion intensity of each metabolite within each genotype before and after the intervention.

2

Numbers in parentheses are the total number of metabolites within each class.

3

The value was derived after 2048 permutations of the data set.

4

The value was derived after 256 permutations of the data set.

5

The probability that the total number of metabolites found to be different would have occurred by chance, estimated from the frequency distribution of metabolites that reached the statistical threshold (P < 0.05) after permutations of the data set.
