1 N Total Identified = Total number of differential metabolites between Dia and Con rabbits. 2 N Signif Different = Number of significant differential metabolites between Dia and Con rabbits. 3 N Signif Up = Number of significantly higher metabolite contents in Dia than in Con rabbits. 4 N Signif Down = Number of significantly lower metabolite contents in Dia than in Con rabbits.
