Sex-stratified comparisons of the microbiome with categorical ASRS groups and continuous scales from ASRS and DASS (adjusted for BMI). A: Relative abundance comparison of the dominating 15 phyla in ASRS+ (red) and ASRS- (blue) groups in both sexes. B: Volcano plots of correlation analysis between ASRS and DASS scales and relative abundance at the phylum level in both sexes. C: Alpha diversity (Shannon) and beta diversity (Bray-Curtis) in relation to ASRS and DASS scales, represented in terms of R2 values and stratified by sex. D: Abundance of MetaCyc metabolic pathways related to tyrosine, phenylalanine, and tryptophan metabolism (precursors of serotonin) and their correlations with ASRS and DASS scales, stratified by sex. Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale (ASRS), Verbal Hyperactivity/Impulsivity (Verbal HA), Motor Hyperactivity/Impulsivity (Motor HA). p < 0.10, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
