Relationship between saliva and duodenal aspirate microbiomes. A Total microbial load of 21 paired duodenal aspirate and saliva samples. B No significant correlation between the total microbial load of 21 paired duodenal aspirate and saliva samples. C Percentage of taxa in duodenal aspirate samples also present in paired (same patient) vs the average of all non-paired saliva samples (Kruskal-Wallis, P < 0.001). D Volcano plot showing the ratio of relative abundances of species in duodenum vs saliva samples. The red dashed line indicates a significance threshold at q = 0.1 (Kruskal-Wallis with Benjamini-Hochberg correction). Undefined Streptococcus sp. classified as S. pneumoniae with 80% confidence and one base pair mismatch to common Streptococcus taxon found in all samples
