  1. aPathway total indicates the overall number of metabolites that are included in a specific pathway.
  2. bHits.total indicates the number of measured signals that are matched (m/z error < 3 ppm) with the metabolites included in the pathway.
  3. cHits.sig indicates the number of matched signals that were significantly changed between phenotypic groups.
  4. dFET is the right-tail p-value determined by the Fisher Exact Test for pathway enrichment.
