)

Arguments

df

Data frame containing metabolite and comparison data

comparison_var

Character string specifying the comparison variable name

covariates

Character vector of covariate names (optional)

metabolites

Character vector of metabolite names to analyze

comparison_type

Character string: "auto", "binary", or "continuous"

use_point_correlation

Logical, if TRUE uses point correlation for binary comparisons

Value

Data frame with metabolite results including fold change or correlation values

Examples
