Fig. 2From: Relationships between gut microbiota, plasma metabolites, and metabolic syndrome traits in the METSIM cohortAssociations between microbiota taxa and circulating serum metabolites. Serum metabolite concentrations were measured from fasting samples using NMR or LC-MS/MS. They were then associated with microbial taxa following adjustment for age and treatment of the subjects. *Ruminococcus from the family Lachnospiraceae; **Ruminococcus from the family Ruminococcaceae.
