Significant results presented following mixed-effects modeling of each of the 578 individual metabolites measured at day 0, 3 and 7. All estimates adjusted for age, SAPS II, admission diagnosis, 25(OH)D at day 0, absolute change in 25(OH)D level at day 3 and plasma day (as the random-intercept). A multiple test-corrected threshold of P-value < 8.65 × 10–5 was used to identify all significant associations. Negative β coefficient values indicate lower abundance in females relative to males.
