Description: he composition of subgingival microbiota between the RA patients and controls in groups AM and PD were estimated by LEfSe with the parameter of the logarithmic LDA score > 2. In group AM, 176 discriminative taxa in total were found (Supplementary Figure S1A). Of the species level with the logarithmic LDA score > 4, Streptococcus

Description: In group PD, a total of 129 taxa showed differential abundances between the RA patients and controls (Supplementary Figure S1B). Of the species level with the loga�rithmic LDA score > 4, S. anginosus and three unidentified species of genera Actinomyces, Fusobacterium, and Parvimonas demonstrated a significant increase in the RA patients, while Pseudomonas batumici (P. batumici) was the only enriched species found in the controls (the logarithmic LDA score = 5.42).
