From: Links of gut microbiota composition with alcohol dependence syndrome and alcoholic liver disease
Microbial species significantly associated with alcohol dependence and liver disease. The figure shows coefficients of the linear model obtained by applying MaAsLin method to reference-mapping based taxonomic composition vectors (adjusted p value < 0.05). Positive values denote a direct association between the clinical factor and the relative abundance of the respective taxon, while negative values denote a reverse association. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus species are highlighted according to the direction of the respective association. a Alcohol dependence. b Liver cirrhosis
