Note.
a
Fecal microbiota (independent variable) presented as a relative abundance, serum metabolite (dependent variable) presented as scaled import measure, diet did not meet criterion for inclusion in the model, N = 23.
b
Final model equation predicting serum serotonin, presented with unstandardized coefficients: Y = 0.642 + 0.016x1.
c
Final model equation predicting serum serotonin, presented with unstandardized coefficients: Y = 1.188 – 0.169x1.
d
Final model equation predicting serum cortisol, presented with unstandardized coefficients: Y = 1.138 – 0.109x1.
