Abbreviations: CIN, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia; 8-OHdG, 8 hydroxy deoxyguanosine.
Notes: Partitioning of samples was performed using the Dirichlet multinomial mixture model (cite) as implemented in Mothur v1.35 (cite).
π reflects proportion of samples clustered to the community type. θ reflects variance with small values reflecting greater variation.
