Primary outcome measure(s)
Chi-square test — Before treatment, 3~12months after treatment Using the Galaxy platform, perform taxonomic profiling followed by LDA(Linear Discriminant Analysis ) analysis. Group by primary diagnosis and derive the LDA(Linear Discriminant Analysis) Effect Size, or utilize MaAsLin2(Microbiome Multivariable Association with Linear Models 2) to identify genera/species showing significant compositional changes between diseases.
t-test — Before treatment, 3~12months after treatment Using the Galaxy platform, perform taxonomic profiling followed by LDA(Linear Discriminant Analysis) analysis. Group by primary diagnosis and derive the LDA(Linear Discriminant Analysis) Effect Size, or utilize MaAsLin2(Microbiome Multivariable Association with Linear Models 2) to identify genera/species showing significant compositional changes between diseases.
Pearson's coefficient — Before treatment, 3~12months after treatment Using the Galaxy platform, perform taxonomic profiling followed by LDA(Linear Discriminant Analysis) analysis. Group by primary diagnosis and derive the LDA(Linear Discriminant Analysis) Effect Size, or utilize MaAsLin2(Microbiome Multivariable Association with Linear Models 2) to identify genera/species showing significant compositional changes between diseases.
