  1. aDifferential metabolites were identified based on the variable importance for a projection (VIP) value > 1, a correlation coefficient between the X variables and a predictive score of predictive component 1 [p (corr)] > 0.6 in the OPLS-DA model and an independent t-test with a significant difference (P < 0.05) and a potential difference (0.05 < P < 0.10). If one differential metabolite was detected in both positive and negative modes, the parameters from positive mode are presented
