Host species Species from which microbiome was sampled. Contact us to have more species added.: Homo sapiens

Body site Anatomical site where microbial samples were extracted from according to the Uber Anatomy Ontology: Meconium Meconium,meconium

Condition The experimental condition / phenotype studied according to the Experimental Factor Ontology: Premature birth Birth, Premature,Birth, Preterm,Births, Premature,Births, Preterm,Premature Births,Preterm Birth,Preterm Births,Premature birth,premature birth

Group 0 name Corresponds to the control (unexposed) group for case-control studies: >/=33 weeks

Group 1 name Corresponds to the case (exposed) group for case-control studies: infants <33 weeks gestational age

Group 1 definition Diagnostic criteria applied to define the specific condition / phenotype represented in the case (exposed) group: the study groups are devided into two groups acc to the gestational age. 1) gestational age < 33 weeks. 2) gestational age >/= 33 weeks

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: Ion Torrent

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)?: No

Confounders controlled for Confounding factors that have been accounted for by stratification or model adjustment: birth weight, chorioamnionitis, sex, Confounders controlled for: "infant antibiotic" is not in the list (abnormal glucose tolerance, acetaldehyde, acute graft vs. host disease, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, adenoma, age, AIDS, alcohol consumption measurement, alcohol drinking, ...) of allowed values.infant antibiotic, Confounders controlled for: "maternal antibiotic" is not in the list (abnormal glucose tolerance, acetaldehyde, acute graft vs. host disease, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, adenoma, age, AIDS, alcohol consumption measurement, alcohol drinking, ...) of allowed values.maternal antibiotic, Confounders controlled for: "insurance" is not in the list (abnormal glucose tolerance, acetaldehyde, acute graft vs. host disease, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, adenoma, age, AIDS, alcohol consumption measurement, alcohol drinking, ...) of allowed values.insurance, Confounders controlled for: "ROM>18 h" is not in the list (abnormal glucose tolerance, acetaldehyde, acute graft vs. host disease, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, adenoma, age, AIDS, alcohol consumption measurement, alcohol drinking, ...) of allowed values.ROM>18 h, feeding practices

Shannon Estimator of species richness and species evenness: more weight on species richness: unchanged
