Description: The enrichment deviation diagram of three groups based on LEfSe analysis (selection criteria: P<0.05; LDA score ≥ 4). Histogram of LDA value of intestinal microbiota in three groups. The column represents LDA Score, and the colors represent the microbiota in three groups, respectively. LEfSe cladogram of LEfSe analysis.
Abundance in Group 1: increased abundance in active tuberculosis (ATB)
