Fig. 2: Most abundant prokaryotic taxa in microbiota of Moroccan population associated to COVID-19.

Colors on the heatmap represent the scaled (Z-score) abundance of each taxon in samples. The arrows above the heatmap correspond to the results of the multivariable analyzes: the direction of each arrow indicates whether the taxon is more or less abundant in COVID-19 patients compared to healthy subjects, and in severe patients compared to non-severe patients. The heatmap was divided into three clusters corresponding to healthy subjects, non-severe patients, and severe patients. On the right-hand side of the heatmap, each patient’s hospitalization time, age, presence of comorbidities, ALT value, C-reactive protein level, and lymphocyte count are displayed. The histograms in the top right illustrate the differences in ALT value, C-reactive protein level, and lymphocyte count between healthy subjects, non-severe patients, and severe patients.
