Inverse correlation between the fecal level of propionate and the number of E. coli in the stool samples and ileal mucosa of Crohn’s disease patients

Correlation between the level of propionate and the number of E. coli bacteria associated with the ileal mucosa (a, c) and present in the stool samples (b, d) from Crohn’s disease patients; AIEC+ (a, b) and AIEC- (c, d). Spearman correlation analysis was performed between propionate concentration and the number of E. coli in pairwise comparisons (CFU: colony-forming unit).
