a Variance in principal component (PC) scores partitioned to different types of early exposures at each time point according to multivariate regression. b Variance in PC scores attributable to early exposures (Other variables) and the previous time points’ PC scores. c Variance in PC scores attributable to early exposures (Other variables) and the first time point’s PC scores. d Associations between abundant microbial families, birth mode, breastfeeding, and siblings. Comparisons of Birthmode (C-section and Vaginal ABX to Vaginal), Diet (Breastmilk and Mixed to Formula) and Siblings (No Siblings to Siblings) are represented with P-values denoted by colour-coded asterisks at the bottom of the panel based on generalised linear models: ***p < 0.001; **p < 0.01; *p < 0.05. The data are presented as mean values +/− SEM.
