Patient Characteristics for Microbiome Group Comparison
| Characteristic | BF– biopsies | BF+ biopsies | P valuea |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total no. | 38 | 35 | — |
| Sex, female, n (%) | 22 (58) | 22 (63) | .81 |
| Age, y, median (range) | 50 (19–67) | 47 (17–79) | .57 |
| Control, n (%) | 15 (39) | 7 (20) | .08 |
| IBS, n (%) | 15 (39) | 21 (60) | .1 |
| UC, n (%) | 8 (22) | 7 (20) | 1 |
| Antibiotic treatment in last 3 y, n (%) (n = 58) | 13 (43) | 12 (42) | 1 |
NOTE. Values are presented as median (range) for continuous variables or n (%) for categorical variables. Percentages are calculated based on the actual number of patients in each group for which the respective data were available. If data were not available for all subjects, the number of subjects for which the respective data were available is indicated in the first column. Mann-Whitney U test and 2-sided Fisher exact test were used to determine P values for continuous and categorical variables, respectively.
