Fig. 5From: Gut microbiome changes in overweight male adults following bowel preparationPrincipal coordinate analysis (PCoA) based on weighted UniFrac distance. Each point represents one fecal sample. (a) Red color means the Type 1 group, and blue color means the Type 2 group. The 60 fecal samples were separated into two clusters. (b) The three colors represent the three collection sample times. Gray means prior to bowel preparation, denotes as SB; orange means 7 days after colonoscopy, denoted as D7; and blue means 28 days after colonoscopy, denoted as D28. The difference of microbial diversity within individuals did not change remarkably over the three collection timesBack to article page
