age: two sequence archives disagree for 2 samples (e.g. 79.0 vs 28779.3) — withheld.
The sources disagree on 2 samples. Where two incompatible values exist for one sample (or one person's samples disagree on sex), neither value is published: the field is left empty here, in the sample sheet and in the downloads. Both sides, with their sources, are in gut_metadata_contradictions.parquet of the data package (what counts as a contradiction).

longitudinal
187 of 214 people sampled more than once (611 samples; median 3, up to 4 per person) · follow-up median 2.9 y (max 3.2 y) · median interval between samples 12 mo (time from age at collection).
Each row is one person (36 shown of 187); dots are samples at days since that person's first sample.
Genera, mean relative abundance over 634 profiled gut samples of this project (Sandpiper SingleM profiles, GTDB R232; low-depth and non-metagenome profiles left out).
