Table 4 Univariate association of variables with small intestinal bacterial overgrowth after least absolute shrinkage and selection operator logistic regression-based selection and collinearity exclusion

No	Variable	GHBT positive (n = 12)	GHBT negative (n = 18)	P value
1	Abdominal bloating	12 (100.0%)	1 (5.6%)	< 0.001^a
2	Ileus	9 (75.0%)	2 (11.1%)	0.001^a
3	NLR	11.71 (2.28-23.5)	4.95 (1.75-8.8)	0.001^a
4	CTSI score	8 (2-10)	2 (1-6)	< 0.001^a
5	Obstipation	8 (66.7%)	3 (16.7%)	0.009
6	Creatinine (mg/dL)	0.9 (0.5-1.6)	0.65 (0.4-1.4)	0.012

^aP < 0.001, statistically significant after Bonferroni correction (α = 0.05/6 = 0.0083).

GHBT: Glucose hydrogen breath test; CTSI: Computed tomography severity index; NLR: Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio.
