From: Effect of atorvastatin on the gut microbiota of high fat diet-induced hypercholesterolemic rats
Relative abundance expressed as a percentage of the dominant and/or commonly present bacterial phyla among different diet and drug-treated groups. The cutoff points for selecting the dominant phyla was set to ≥1%, and commonly present taxa were detected in >50% of rats per group. NCD, normal chow diet; NCD-T, normal chow diet + atorvastatin treatment; HFD, high-fat diet; 5 mg/kg, HFD + 5 mg/kg atorvastatin; 10 mg/kg, HFD + 10 mg/kg atorvastatin; 15 mg/kg, HFD + 15 mg/kg atorvastatin; 20 mg/kg, HFD + 20 mg/kg atorvastatin.
