Sex differences in metabolite levels in childhood and adulthood. Association measures are SD difference in metabolite concentration for females compared to males in children (A) and adults (B). Error bars represent 95% CIs. Significant associations after p values adjusted for multiple testing using Benjamini-Hochberg procedure are shown in bold (FDR=0.10). Association measures in absolute concentration units, 95% CIs and associated p values are listed in the online supplementary tables 3 and 4. HDL, high-density lipoprotein; IDL, intermediate density lipoprotein; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; VLDL, very low-density lipoprotein.
