Extended Data Fig. 6. Patients with overproduction of Bacteroides vulgatus proteases have increased endoscopic and histological severity.
a, Bacteroides protease production corresponds to increased endoscopic severity. The disease activity of overproducers, underproducers, and other patients are individually plotted over boxplots. Two-tailed, t-test p-values are displayed above the boxplots. Sample sizes include n=16, 14 and 71 for overproducers, underproducers and others respectively. Boxplots are defined by the median, quartiles and 1.5x inter-quartile range. b, Bacteroides protease production corresponds to a patient population with a decreased proportion of patients in histological remission. Each UC patient sample was categorized by Bacteroides vulgatus protease production category and the percent of patients in histological remission is shown in a bargraph with the number of samples in each category displayed above each bar. Histological remission is defined here as Geboes Grade 3 = 0.
