From: Perturbation and resilience of the gut microbiome up to 3 months after β-lactams exposure in healthy volunteers suggest an important role of microbial β-lactamases

Relationship between the baseline characteristics and the maximal perturbations (A) and maximal resilience (B) of the studied gut microbiota and gut components in the 22 healthy volunteers included in the CEREMI trial. Baseline characteristics of the intestinal microbiota are presented in the top horizontal axis, while the maximal perturbations or resilience are presented in the left vertical axis. For the correlation between the baseline characteristics of the intestinal microbiota and the maximal perturbations, a positive correlation is interpreted as an increase in the level of perturbation when the baseline characteristic increases. For the correlation between the baseline characteristics of the intestinal microbiota and the maximal resilience, a negative correlation is interpreted as an increase in the level of resilience when the baseline characteristic increases. The colour intensity of the squares indicates the level of the Spearman correlation coefficient. Stars indicate a statistically significant Spearman’s correlation coefficient.
