Group 1 name Corresponds to the case (exposed) group for case-control studies
BC patients with MetS
Group 1 definition Diagnostic criteria applied to define the specific condition / phenotype represented in the case (exposed) group
Female BC patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS). A confirmed case of MetS required the presence of three or more criteria: waist circumference exceeding 80 cm in females; fasting glucose levels of 100 mg/dL or higher; HDL cholesterol below 50 mg/dL in females; triglyceride levels of 150 mg/dL or higher; and blood pressure of 130/85 mmHg or higher.

Group 1 sample size Number of subjects in the case (exposed) group
30
Antibiotics exclusion Number of days without antibiotics usage (if applicable) and other antibiotics-related criteria used to exclude participants (if any)
3 months

Description: The load of Lactobacillus bacteria (Fig. 3) and Bifidobacterium bacteria (Fig. 4) in the stools of separated patients regarding metabolic syndrome and control by Kruskall–Wallis test. Bacterial group count expressed as log10 equivalent bacteria/g of feces.

Abundance in Group 1: decreased abundance in BC patients with MetS
