Only reactions (Enzyme Commision number; EC) and pathways (PWY) with at least one significant difference between groups according to adjusted p < 0.1 and p < 0.25 (Benjamini–Hochberg correction), respectively, are shown. BH: Benjamini–Hochberg correction; FDR: false discovery rate; EC 1.8.2: sulphur-cytochrome oxidoreductases; PWY.5022: 4-aminobutanoate degradation; PWY.6470: peptidoglycan biosynthesis V (β-lactam resistance); GLUTORN.PWY: L-ornithine biosynthesis I; ARGSYN.PWY: L-arginine biosynthesis II; EoE: eosinophilic oesophagitis; FED: food-elimination diet; PPI: proton pump inhibitors; STC: swallowed topical corticosteroids; ns: not significant (p > 0.1 for EC and p > 0.25 for PWY).
