- Antiretroviral therapy (ART) Naïve at baseline
- Group 1 definition Diagnostic criteria applied to define the specific condition / phenotype represented in the case (exposed) group
- PLWH (people living with HIV) who were not on ART at the first timepoint but who subsequently commenced first-line ART with efavirenz/lamivudine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (EFV/3TC/TDF) and the prophylactic antibiotic cotrimoxazole (ART Naïve) - Baseline
- Group 0 sample size Number of subjects in the control (unexposed) group
- 42
- Group 1 sample size Number of subjects in the case (exposed) group
- 67
- Antibiotics exclusion Number of days without antibiotics usage (if applicable) and other antibiotics-related criteria used to exclude participants (if any)
- Use of antibiotics (apart from co-trimoxazole) within 2 months
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).
- centered log-ratio
- Statistical test
- ANCOM
- 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
- Confounders controlled for Confounding factors that have been accounted for by stratification or model adjustment
- Confounders controlled for: "location" 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.location, Confounders controlled for: "viral load" 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.viral load
