Microbial diversity and community structure in gastric biopsy and stool samples. Box plots showing (A1) increased gastric richness index following successful eradication compared with that of baseline and showing no difference to that of Helicobacter pylori negative subjects; (A2) increased gastric Shannon index following successful eradication compared with that of baseline and showing no difference to that of H. pylori negative subjects. Dissimilarities of microbial community structure in gastric biopsies showing (A3) a significant difference before and after successful eradication; (A4) no change before and after failed treatment; (A5) significant differences when the biopsies after successful or failed treatment were compared with H. pylori negative subjects. Box plots showing (B1) no significant change in faecal richness index before and after anti-H. pylori treatment; (B2) no significant change in faecal Shannon index before and after anti-H. pylori treatment. Dissimilarities of microbial community structure in stool samples showing (B3) a significant difference before and after successful eradication; (B4) a significant difference before and after failed treatment; (B5) marginal difference between after successful eradication and H. pylori negative subjects. aWilcoxon signed-rank test. bLogistic regression adjusted for age, sex and gastric lesion. cPERMANOVA test.
