From: Meta-analysis of 16S rRNA microbial data identified alterations of the gut microbiota in COVID-19 patients during the acute and recovery phases

Fig. 3

Differential gut microbial composition between COV and non-COV (a) at genus level, and (b) at species level. Heatmap showed log (OR) of relative abundances of bacterial taxa between COV and non-COV across each study. The bacterial taxa unavailable in a particular study were in white in heatmap. Forest plot indicated pooled log (OR) estimate and 95% CI of relative abundances of bacterial taxa between COV and non-COV across all studies included. Log (OR) estimates were from GAMLSS-BEZI and Random Effects Meta-analysis. Only bacterial taxa with pooled P of pooled log (OR) estimates below 0.05 were displayed. Pooled log (OR) estimates with FDR-adjusted pooled P < 0.1 were showed as red triangles. Log (OR) > 0 denoted an increase and log (OR) < 0 denoted a decrease of taxa relative abundance in COV compared with non-COV. COV, samples derived from COVID-19 patients; non-COV, samples derived from non-COVID-19 individuals
