Correlation between serum propionic acid and Parkinson’s symptoms. A Serum propionic acid is significantly negatively correlated with UPDRS part III score in PD patients (n = 50), R = -0.365, P = 0.009. B Scatterplots show a negative correlation between propionic acid concentration and MMSE score, R = -0.416, P = 0.003. (C) Scatterplots show a positive correlation between propionic acid concentration and HAMD score, R = 0.306, P = 0.03. Spearman nonparametric correlation test was used in the correlation analysis.
