a

Associations were performed using multivariable linear regression adjusted for age (years), sex, body mass index at blood draw (in kg/m2)

b

The reported results belong to 9 significant associations out of 296 gut microbial taxa that were tested.

c

All associations with a nominal p<0.05 are shown. No result was significant after correction for multiple comparisons (using the False Discovery Rate method).
