In two of those species comparisons, the sibling species with the smaller geographic distribution had higher prevalence; in the latter comparison, the species with the larger geographic distribution had the higher prevalence.
The larger difference in the latter comparison is consistent with data showing that the A and G genomes are more similar in size and are phylogenetically closer to each other than either is to the D genome [ 21].
This latter comparison was supplemented with a formal χ test of which parameters of A1C or IDAA1C are most closely related to C-peptide, by constructing a 2 × 2 × 2 table of classifications based on A1C, IDAA1C, and stimulated C-peptide.
The other strains showed similar levels of variation, on the order of 6% (CFN42) and 4% (CIAT652), with the latter comparison always showing a lower variance.
Two metabolites related to glucose metabolism, D-glucono-1,5-lactone-6-phosphate and glycerol-3-phosphate, were lower in both fasted and insulin-neutralized treatments vs. fed, with the latter comparison nearing statistical significance (p < 0.1).
Funnily, or twangily, enough, in a recent interview mainman Ryan Sambol dismissed the latter comparison as "ridiculous", stating that said pantheon-worthy anthology was "filled mostly with boring stuff and horrible lyrics".
In contrast, expression pathways associated with metabolism of amino acids, terpenoids and polyketides was unchanged in that latter comparison.
Western blot analysis allowed to validate our previous proteomics data, confirming that all MOH patients groups show a significant over-excretion of urinary PTGDS, UROM, AMBP and CYSC (excluding triptans group for this latter), in comparison with controls.
Table 2 summarises the patients' scores, which are presented following norm-based and standard transformations, the latter for comparison with other studies.
Although the publications suggest more severe endometriosis in the latter in comparison with the former studies, the progress can be at least partially explained by improvement of diagnostic tools such as ultrasound.
