Symptoms with Ability to Predict from Microbiome Results

The table below is based on Biomesight samples which has been annotated with self-reporting symptoms. A factor of 16 means no ability to predict.

  • A value of 20 indicates about a 56% chance of correctly predicting both With and Without
  • A value of 25 indicates about a 66% chance of correctly predicting both With and Without
  • A value of 30 indicates about a 70% chance of correctly predicting both With and Without

The chance can increase significantly (90+%) when you are willing to have a higher percentage of false positive.

This is part of research in progress and intended to indicate the degree that the microbiome may contribute to various symptoms. The above was based on testing models against this data to determine how often it predicted correctly.

Work is in progress to generate suggestions to moderate the microbiome away from these symptoms.

For a list of the genus for each, see Citizen Science Symptoms To Genus Special Studies. Using 84+%ile for high to be deemed a match, and 16-% for low to be deemed a match has produced good results,
