Table A1 displays the results of the PERMANOVA analysis. The variance in metagenomics between participants with and without FIB-4 ≥ 1.45 was not significantly different. 1 FIB-4 score ≥ 1.45 was defined as “unable to exclude advanced liver fibrosis/cirrhosis”. Abbreviation: FIB-4, Fibrosis-4 Index; PERMANOVA, permutational multivariate analysis of variance.
