Fig. 4From: The mediating roles of the oral microbiome in saliva and subgingival sites between e-cigarette smoking and gingival inflammationThe results from β-diversity analysis. The two-dimensional PCoA plots visualize if the microbial composition is differential by the status of EC smoking with respect to each distance metric in the saliva (A) and subgingival (B) sites, respectively. *p represents the P-value estimated by GLMM-MiRKAT to test the disparity in each distance metric between EC users and non-users while adjusting for age, gender and the frequency of brushing teethBack to article page
