From: Burn resuscitation strategy influences the gut microbiota-liver axis in swine
Impact of resuscitation on bacteria beta diversity. (a) Bray–Curtis and (c) generalized UniFrac distances visualized by PCoA plots. Symbol shapes depict sample time-points, whereas symbol colors represent different resuscitation strategies. Each data point represents an individual sample. The amount of variation explained by each axis are indicated in parentheses. Boxplots of (b) Bray–Curtis and (d) generalized UniFrac longitudinal first-distances. First-distances were calculated as the distance between post-injury (24 h and 48 h) time-points and its respective baseline. Each boxplot shows the median along with the first and third quartiles. Whiskers depict the standard error and data points in the boxplots represent an individual sample. *: p < 0.05; **: p < 0.01; ***: p < 0.001 calculated by LME models. MB (n = 6 pigs), LV-Co (n = 10 pigs), and LV-Cr (n = 11 pigs).
