Role of Bacteroides in CDI. a Linear discriminant analysis effect size was used to compare the composition of intestinal microbiota among CDP (n = 7) and CDN (n = 16) patients at the beginning of EN. Only taxa with a significant LDA threshold value of > 4 are shown. b Correlation matrix of the relative abundance of predominant genera in all C. difficile-positive samples (n = 18). The average percentage of each genus among all samples is shown to the left of the name of the genus. Only significant correlations are shown (P < 0.05). The size and color of the circles reflect the degree and direction of the correlation, respectively. Correlations were all tested using Spearman’s correlation test
