From: Evaluation of stool microbiota signatures in two cohorts of Asian (Singapore and Indonesia) newborns at risk of atopy

  Bacteria groups Mean differences (95% CI) p value
Total breastfeeding: Yes versus No Lactobacilli - Enterococci 5.236 (1.044 - 9.428) 0.015
Weaning age Clostridium leptum -0.827 (-1.5934 - -0.0602) 0.035
Sibling number Bifidobacterium
Enterobacteriaceae 		3.873 (0.112 -7.634)
-0.526 (-0.8725 - -0.1801) 		0.044
0.004
  1. Linear mixed model analysis adjusted with confounding factors (Location, mode of delivery, weaning age, sibling number, total breastfeeding up to 6 month, eczema and prenatal antibiotics). Only bacteria groups with statistically significant differences are listed.
