The significant serum biomarkers in the three ethnic groups. (a) The distribution pattern of serum biomarkers in the three ethnic groups. Both rows and columns were clustered by Euclidean distance, and the serum levels of biomarkers were normalized by z-scores. MPV: mean platelet volume, PLCR: platelet to large cell ratio, MCV: mean cell volume, MCH: mean cell hemoglobin, RDWSD: red cell distribution width - standard deviation, HCY: homocysteine, BUN: blood urea nitrogen, C3: complements 3, C4: complements 4, IgM: immunoglobulin M, FT4: free thyroxin, ALB: albumin, AG: albumin to globulin ration, TBIL: total bilirubin, DBIL: direct bilirubin. (b) The association between the serum levels of the three types of bilirubin and the log relative abundance of the Megamonas genus; p was calculated from the Spearman correlation analysis. TBIL: total bilirubin (p = ,0.0009 adjusted R-squared = 0.083), IBIL: indirect bilirubin (p = 0.0082, adjusted R-squared = 0.050), DBIL: direct bilirubin (p = 0.0004, adjusted R-squared = 0.094).
