The sentences
Ruminococcus did not show any significant positive correlation, although correlations for propionic acid (r = 0.462, p = 0.053) and butyric acid (r = 0.452, p = 0.059) were just over the limits of statistical significance.
The propionic and butyric acids appeared to be correlated with Ruminococcus , although the correlations were at the margin of significance.
