a Comparison in counts of carbohydrate-active enzyme subfamilies and copy number of carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) encoding genes observed in the metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) enriched before and after the IF intervention. b Heatmap of associations between the relative abundances of MAGs and clinical parameters of participants. Red represents a positive correlation, whereas blue represents a negative correlation. AI atherosclerosis index; ALT alanine aminotransferase; BFR body fat ratio; DBP diastolic blood pressure; LDL-C low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; UA uric acid. c Enrichment of MAGs negatively correlated with AI. The MAGs with a fold change less than zero were enriched before the IF intervention, and those with values above zero were enriched after.
