Bacterial function prediction by PICRUSt analysis. Associations between altered families and functions in the rampant caries microbial community and health. The result of KEGG prediction of RC-SS group shows that Cardiobacteriaceae, Pasteurellaceae, Corynebacteriaceae and Micrococcaceae, Veillonellaceae, Carnobacteriaceae exist in the metabolic characteristics significantly. Veillonellaceae is related to Carbohydrate Metabolism, such as Pentose and glucuronate interconversions, Pentose phosphate pathway. And Veillonellaceae, Bifidobacteriaceae, Coriobacteriaceae are related with Arachidonic acid metabolism, Bacterial toxins
