α diversity from pre- and post-inoculation of endometriosis in GI tract (A, B) and urine (C, D). (A): Simpson’s evenness in GI tract (Simpson’s evenness [species uniformity]: pre-inoc and 3 m post-inoc: p = 0.09; 3 m and 6 m post-inoc: p = 0.02; 3 m and 9 m post-inoc: p = 0.034; 3 m and 15 m post-inoc: p = 0.04), (B) Faith’s phylogenetic diversity in GI tract (p = 0.01), (C) Simpson’s evenness in urine (Simpson’s evenness: pre-inoc and 15 m post-inoc: p = 0.03; 3 m and 15 m post-inoc: p = 0.04), (D) Simpson’s diversity in urine (Simpson’s diversity: pre-inoc and 6 m post-inoc: p = 0.03). The horizontal lines inside the boxes indicate the median, whereas the lower lines and upper lines of the boxes indicate the 25th and the 75th percentiles, respectively. The dots outside the boxes indicate the outliers. *Indicates significance between groups, p-value < 0.05.
