Chao1 index

1. Chao1 index lowers the risk of hypertension in humans (HR 0.672, 95% CI 0.495–0.913).

   “greater microbial diversitymeasured using the Chao1 index(HR = 0.672, 95% CI: 0.495-0.913; P = 0.0076), and observed index (HR = 0.667, 95% CI: 0.492-0.906; P = 0.008) were associated with delayed hypertension onset.”
