Figure Lengend Snippet: PCA plots based on the ( A ) nine lipid mediators or the ( B ) 370 microbial species. Red represents the pre-pubescent (GUSTO; N = 34) and blue represents the adult (HELIOS; N = 100) cohorts. Median relative abundance differences in the top 15 commonly abundant species between ( C ) pre-pubescent and adult subjects, and between ( D ) pre-menopausal ( N = 25) and post-menopausal ( N = 25) women. *Human papillomavirus type 134 was found only on one adult subject at high abundance.
Article Snippet: To visualize differences in the skin lipid mediator and microbiome profiles between the HELIOS and GUSTO cohorts, Principal Component Analyses (PCA) were performed using parallel analysis with default setting in GraphPad Prism 10.2.3.
