From: Intestinal microbial communities associated with acute enteric infections and disease recovery
Principle coordinate analysis depicting the shift in microbial communities following recovery. Intestinal communities of 13 patients with a Campylobacter (n = 3), b Salmonella (n = 6), and c Shigella (n = 4) infections were compared during the acute enteric infection (red) and post-recovery (green). A comparison was also made to the intestinal communities among healthy family members (pink). The number of individuals sampled during the acute infection stage did not always equal the number of samples received following recovery due to missing samples or loss to follow-up; hence, the time points were pooled for the analysis
