Group 0 name Corresponds to the control (unexposed) group for case-control studies: Healthy controls free of neurological disease

Group 1 name Corresponds to the case (exposed) group for case-control studies: Participants with Parkinson's Disease

Group 1 definition Diagnostic criteria applied to define the specific condition / phenotype represented in the case (exposed) group: Dataset 1. Participants with Parkinson's Disease, diagnosed by a movement disorder specialist using UK Brain Bank criteria.

Group 0 sample size Number of subjects in the control (unexposed) group: 136

Group 1 sample size Number of subjects in the case (exposed) group: 212

Lab analysis

Sequencing type: 16S

16S variable region One or more hypervariable region(s) of the bacterial 16S gene: V4

Sequencing platform Manufacturer and experimental platform used for quantifying microbial abundance: Illumina

Statistical Analysis

Data transformation Data transformation applied to microbial abundance measurements prior to differential abundance testing (if any).: relative abundances

Statistical test: Kruskall-Wallis

Significance threshold p-value or FDR threshold used for differential abundance testing (if any): 0.05

MHT correction Have statistical tests be corrected for multiple hypothesis testing (MHT)?: Yes
