An Integrative Bioinformatic Analysis of Microbiome and Transcriptome for Predicting the Risk of Colon Adenocarcinoma

Figure 2

Microbiome analysis of the high- and low-risk groups of COAD. (a) Composition of the gut microbiota at the phylum level in patients with high and low risk. (b) Core microbiome analysis of family level. (c) Alpha diversity analysis of samples in the high and low risk dataset. (d) Two-dimensional scatter plot of nonmetric multidimensional scale analysis of gut microbiota family gate levels in COAD cancer patients. (e) A random forest “classification” approach was used to find key bacteria associated with groupings.
