Fig. 3: Increased diversity of microbiome detected in blood in schizophrenia samples.

a Alpha diversity per sample for four subject groups (Controls, ALS, BPD, SCZ) measured using the inverse Simpson index on the phylum level of classification. Schizophrenia samples show increased diversity compared to all three other groups (ANCOVA P < 0.005 for all groups, after adjustment of covariates, see also Methods, Table S5, and Figure S3). b Alpha diversity per sample of schizophrenia cases and controls, measured using the inverse Simpson index on the genus level of classification. Schizophrenia samples show increased within-subject diversity compared to Controls (P = 0.003 after adjustment of covariates)
