Qi-Deficiency Related Increases in Disease Susceptibility Are Potentially Mediated by the Intestinal Microbiota

<div>Relative abundance of intestinal microbiota at phylum (a), family (b), and genus (c) levels in PH and QX populations based on 16SrRNA sequencing. (b) shows that the taxa median relative abundance at the family level is ≥ 1% of total abundance. (c) shows that the taxa relative abundance at the genus level is ≥ 1% of the total abundance within groups (c1) and individuals (c2).</div>
