pyMetabo.significant_metabolites(*, padj_thresh=0.05, log2fc_thresh=1.0)

Filter self.deg_table to padj < padj_thresh and |log2fc| ≥ log2fc_thresh.

Convenience selector — equivalent to the standard volcano-plot cutoffs. Raises RuntimeError if differential() hasn’t run. For small-cohort metabolomics studies, consider relaxing padj_thresh (e.g. 0.10–0.20) since BH-FDR is conservative.

Parameters:

• padj_thresh (float (default: 0.05))

• log2fc_thresh (float (default: 1.0))
