Intestinal parasitic infections have limited effects on alpha diversity.

Three different alpha diversity indices were analyzed for association with infection status using robust regression (Methods). The table show summary statistics: P value for analysis within participants from cohort I, within participants from cohort II and across all participants (Total), Benjamini-Hochberg adjusted P value for analysis across all individuals (P.adj), and association coefficient (Beta). Most pronounced effects are seen in cohort II with protozoan infections. P values and P.adj values below 0.05 are highlighted.
