16S rRNA-based analysis demonstrates deviation from a healthy state by NEC patients prior to diagnosis. (A) PCoA of control patients after two weeks of life (blue), and NEC patients between three weeks prior to NEC diagnosis up to date of diagnosis demonstrate a separation of the NEC patients. (B) PCoA of control patients after two weeks of life (blue), and NEC patients (red) between three weeks prior to NEC diagnosis and onwards past diagnosis demonstrate increasing clustering and deviation of the NEC patients.
