Fig. 4: Dietary components as a mediator between UPPS facets and gut microbiota.
From: Impulsivity among healthy adults is associated with diet and fecal microbiota composition
Results from the mediation analysis, testing for the mediation effect of dietary components on the relationship between UPPS-facets and gut microbiota. A. Consumption of alcohol as a mediator between UPPS-sensation seeking and the bacterial taxa Eubacterium siraeum. B. Consumption of fiber as a mediator between UPPS-urgency and the bacterial taxa Butyricicoccus. Consumption of sugary drinks as a mediator between UPPS-urgency and the bacterial taxa C. Lachnospiraceae UCG-001 and D. Butyricicoccus. Coefficients from each model are reported next to the arrows, with the letters a and b. Letters c' and c represent the coefficient with and without the mediator in the model, respectively. ACME: average causal mediated effect, ADE: average direct effect. Significance is indicated with *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
