Figure 2

Shift in mucosal microbiota of the pouch after takedown of diverting ileostomy in patients who had undergone ileal pouch anal anastomosis visualized by principle coordinates analysis of the Unifrac metric based on V3-5 16S rRNA-encoding gene amplicons. The initial time point, prior to takedown of the ileostomy, is indicated by the larger symbols and subsequent time points at the end of the arrows. For comparison, colon mucosal biopsies from healthy individuals are included on the ordination.
