Summary of the DAR profile (z-q), PDO profile (g-q) and MAD profile (Dmax-q) of both inter-DAR* and intra-DAR** analyses.

*
The inter-DAR results are obtained from Ma (2017), and the parameters are based on the average of 18 sites (each site has a set of inter-individual DAR models).
**
The intra-DAR parameters are based on the averages of 150 intra-individual (within-body) DAR models (one set of model for each individual in the HMP cohort).
