SG resulted in alterations of the gut microbiota. (A, B). Chao1 and Shannon index of the gut microbiota in the fecal samples. Student’s t-test was used for significance assessments. *P < 0.05. (C) Unweighted UniFrac principle coordinates analysis (PCoA). (D) Discriminatory importance scores of top-ranked ASVs identified by the Random Forest analysis. A comparison of the relative abundance of top-ranked ASVs between SG and SHAM gut microbiota. Green and brown indicate the degree of relative abundance. (E) MetagenomeSeq analysis showing significantly enriched microbes following SG relative to SHAM operation. The X and Y axis represent taxonomic order and the -log10(adj-Pvalue) value, respectively. Dots of blue, red, and green represent abundant microbes under Bacteroidales, Lactobacillales, and Clostridiales, respectively. n = 6/group; Data are means ± SEM. SHAM, sham surgery; SG, sleeve gastrectomy.
