From: Periodontitis may induce gut microbiota dysbiosis via salivary microbiota
Gut microbiota alterations in the patients with periodontitis. a, b α diversity-Chao1 and Shannon indexes. Data were expressed as the mean ± SD. Statistical significance was determined through the Wilcoxon test. c, d Principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) and clustering analysis showed separate clustering (Adonis analysis, P < 0.05). e The SP group-enriched taxa are shown by a positive LDA score (red), while the taxa enriched in the PH group have a negative score (green). Taxa with an LDA score >2.0 are shown. n = 16 in the PH group and n = 21 in the SP group. *P < 0.05
