Description: Figure 1.. Differences in the relative abundance of Prevotella and Bacteroides in 114 subjects with and without arthritis, determined by 16S sequencing (regions V1–V2, 454 platform). (A) LEfSe (Segata et al., 2011) was used to compare the abundances of all detected clades among all groups, producing an effect size for each comparison (‘Materials and methods’). All results shown are highly significant (q<0.01) by Kruskal-Wallis test adjusted with the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure for multiple testing, except that indicated with an asterisk, which is significant at q<0.05. Negative values (left) correspond to effect sizes representative of NORA groups, while positive values (right) correspond to effect sizes in HLT subjects. Prevotella was found to be over-represented in NORA patients, while Bacteroides was over-represented in all other groups.
