Figure 5 Correlations between fecal bile acids and microbiota composition in all subjects.
The heatmap presents the Spearman correlation coefficients between unconjugated fecal bile acids and the distinguishing genera in all subject. Seven genera belong to the family Ruminococcaceae (Oscillibacter, Clostridium IV, Gemmiger, Anaerofilum, Anaerotruncus, Faecalibacterium, and Ruminococcus); one genus belongs to the family Rikenellaceae (Alistipes); two genera belong to the family Porphyromonadaceae (Odoribacter and Barnesiella); two genera belong to the family Lachnospiraceae (Coprococcus and Clostridium XlVb). All of the genera were decreased significantly in the IBS-D group except for Ruminococcus. aP < 0.05, bP < 0.01. CA: Cholic acid; CDCA: Chenodeoxycholic acid; DCA: Deoxycholic acid; LCA: Lithocholic acid; UDCA: Ursodeoxycholic acid.
