The correlation between gut microbiota and clinical factors in inpatients, as well as identifies gut microbial markers distinguishing inpatients from healthy controls. A Fifteen bacterial families differed in their relative abundance in samples from the healthy and inpatient groups. B Relationship between gut microbiota and clinical factors in inpatients. Distance-based redundancy analysis of clinical factors and bacterial community. Wilcoxon rank-sum test bar plot on family level. C The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) illustrates the performance of the classifiers for distinguishing healthy status and inpatients, with a display of the 95% confidence interval. D Notch plots visualize the relative abundances of the microbial species retained in the classifier. Each dot corresponds to a sample. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 and ***P < 0.001.
