  1. n = 37. Fold change of each metabolome was defined as a ratio of metabolome level at 2 weeks and the baseline metabolome level of each patient. Then, data are reported as mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM)
  2. Bold: Significantly increased when compared to baseline
  3. Italic: Significantly decreased when compared to baseline
