Potential biomarkers of fatigue in plasma metabolites In the first steps of the TCA cycle, the levels of organic acids in the fatigued group showed a slight reduction in comparison with those in the control group (citrate decreased by 12.1%, cis -aconitate by 7.7%, and isocitrate by 4.5%), while a subset of metabolites in the TCA cycle showed a trend toward overcompensation (2-oxoglutarate increased by 11.2%, succinate by 15.7%, fumarate by 27.0%, and malate by 24.6%) ( Fig. 5 ).
Comparison of the anti-lysoganglioside-GM1 antibody titers of the six children at the five time points vs the combined control group’s median values (median titer of 320) showed that they were significantly different at the Post Exac 1 and 2 time points (p = 0.08/0.12/0.08/0.02/0.03, respectively) and the other 3 time points approached significance.
Of the 19 questions we included in the final PRE tool, 11 showed statistical significance in separating known invasive from non-invasive species, four were the result of merging two similar questions, where both were significant or near significant (e.g., different methods of vegetative reproduction, various biotic and abiotic propagule dispersal mechanisms), one was the result of merging four similar questions (human-mediated propagule dispersal) that were significant or nearly significant ( S1 Table ).
