Distinct gut microbiomes in Thai patients with colorectal polyps

Figure 3 Linear discriminant analysis effect size and DESeq2 identified the most enriched microbial species in the control, hyperplastic polyps, and tubular adenoma groups. A: Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) effect size (LEfSe) showed significant microbial differences between the control (CT) and hyperplastic polyps (HP) groups; B: LEfSe showed significant microbial differences the CT and tubular adenoma (TA) groups (LDA score > 2); C: DESeq2 analysis graphs illustrate the log₂ fold differential abundances of microbial species between the CT and HP groups; D: DESeq2 analysis graphs illustrate the log₂ fold differential abundances of microbial species between the CT and TA groups. In the graphs, log₂ fold changes > 0 indicate an increase in the corresponding microbial species, whereas log₂ fold changes < 0 indicate a decrease. Microbial species positioned above the zero threshold demonstrated higher relative abundance in either the HP or TA group compared to the CT group.
