[required] Matrix of distances between pairs of samples.
metadata: Metadatas
metadata: Metadata 0
[required] Metadata column on which to separate groups for comparison
[required] Metadata column containing state (e.g., Time) across which samples are paired.
[required] Baseline state column value.
[required] State column value to pair with baseline.
[required] Metadata column containing subject IDs to use for pairing samples. WARNING: if replicates exist for an individual ID at either state_1 or state_2, that subject will be dropped and reported in standard output by default. Set replicate_handling="random" to instead randomly select one member.

Description:

Performs pairwise distance testing between sample pairs from each subject. Sample pairs may represent a typical intervention study, e.g., samples collected pre- and post-treatment; paired samples from two different timepoints (e.g., in a longitudinal study design), or identical samples receiving different two different treatments. This action tests whether the pairwise distance between each subject pair differs between groups (e.g., groups of subjects receiving different treatments) and produces boxplots of paired distance distributions for each group.
