Community state type (CST) groups based on the dominant Lactobacillus species. (a) Frequency distribution of prolapse (n = 42), pessary (n = 17), and postoperative groups (n = 11). (b) Heatmap of the relative abundance of 22 representative microbial taxa in the vaginal microbiota of all 70 cases (color key indicates taxon % abundance). The Shannon index shows the species diversity and evenness for each sample.
