Changes in the overall structure of the intestinal microflora by sEA and medical treatments. (a) The bar charts represent the average relative abundances of the bacterial phylum. (b) Changes in the ratio of the Bacteroidetes to Firmicutes (B/F).  < 0.01, comparison with the normal control; ^## < 0.01, comparison with the STC model; ^$$$ < 0.001, comparison with sEA. (c) The bar charts represent the average relative abundances of the bacterial genes.
