The associations between the identified microbes and insulin resistance-related phenotypes. Linear mixed-effect models were used to estimate the difference in insulin resistance-related phenotypes (in SD unit) per 1-SD difference in the log-transformed abundance of gut microbes, adjusted for age, sex, smoking status, alcohol status, education, income, physical activity, and total energy intake. Fasting insulin, HOMA-IR, and fasting glucose were log-transformed. HOMA-IR, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance; HbA1c, hemoglobin A1c; FDR, false discovery rate
