Network statistics of the association network of the probiotics-COVID-19 axis

	Topology feature details
Network	Network heterogeneity	Number of Nodes	Nodes Edges	No. of isolated nodes	Avg. num. of neighbors	Clustering coefficient	Number of connected components
Training gene set	1.137	453	1273	0	5.620	0.633	27

The table contains details of the primary association network obtained by text-mining results using an Agilent Literature search (ALS) plugin. “Network clustering coefficient” is the average of the clustering coefficients for all nodes in the network. The “average number of neighbors” indicates the average connectivity of a node in the network
