Differently Abundant Taxa
After adjusting for diet quality (REAP-S score) and type (western, vegetarian, etc.) we compared relative taxa abundance between survivors and controls (Figure 3). Eight taxa had statistically significant differential abundance (p<0.05) after adjusting for multiple comparisons (false discovery rate 0.05). Three amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) of Bacteroides , one ASV ofLachnospiraceae , and one ASV of Holdemanella were more common in controls, suggesting these taxa may be depleted with cancer therapies, whereas two ASVs of Lactobacillus , and one ofFacealitalea were more common in survivors.
