From: Type 1 diabetes, periodontal health, and a familial history of hyperlipidaemia is associated with oral microbiota in children: a cross-sectional study

Fig. 2

Children with no periodontal risk markers and a family history of hyperlipidaemia have a distinctly phylogenetic microbial composition. PCoA plots were generated to compare compositional differences using unweighted UniFrac (A, C) and Bray–Curtis metrics (B, D). Children were separated based on having no (blue; A, B) or with (red; C, D) periodontal risk markers before comparing children without (light square) and with (dark circle) a family history of hyperlipidaemia. The principal coordinates analysis axes (PC) explain the total amount of variation, with the first two axes (i.e., x axis = PC1 and y axis PC2) capturing the largest amount of variation in the data
