Condition The experimental condition / phenotype studied according to the Experimental Factor Ontology
Clinical treatment Clinical treatment,clinical treatment
Group 0 name Corresponds to the control (unexposed) group for case-control studies
Healthy controls (HC).
Group 1 name Corresponds to the case (exposed) group for case-control studies
ART Naïve
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)
Subjects were excluded from all cohorts if they had used antibiotics (apart from co-trimoxazole) within the prior 2 months.

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

Description: Differential abundance of genera in ART-naïve compared to HC using ANCOM-BC, significant differential log-fold changes between microbes were calculated relative to healthy controls using only baseline values.

Abundance in Group 1: decreased abundance in ART Naïve
