Association between sputum PZP (pregnancy zone protein) and microbiological outcomes. (A) Sputum PZP by microorganism growth on standard culture. (B) Sputum PZP by dysbiosis (defined as >50% reads of single phylum on 16S sequencing). (C) Patients were divided into those with PZP above and below the median value for the population, and the percentage operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were compared. The 15 genera most strongly associated with lower PZP concentrations and the 15 genera most strongly associated with higher PZP concentrations are shown. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.001, and ***P < 0.0001.
