a

The correlation for each bacterial abundance amongst three pelvic floor niches were tested with Spearman’s rank correlation. The correlation coefficient, rho, ranges from −1 to 1 corresponding to negative and positive correlation, respectively.

b

p-values < 0.05 are considered significant; significant p-values are bolded.
