Principal component analysis (PCoA) based on Jensen-Shannon divergence identifies two clusters based on anxiety scores (a), and the score is higher in cluster 1 than 2. Not shown here is the Shannon Index which is significantly lower in cluster 1 than 2 (4.8 vs. 5.5, P < 0.001). Taxonomic representation of microbial composition of both clusters is shown in (b), with cluster 1 in red and cluster 2 in green. Histogram of the LDA effect size for both clusters is shown in (c). The most differentially abundant bacterial taxa observed in cluster 1 are the phyla Bacteroidetes (including the genus Prevotella) and Proteobacteria with effect size of 4.8
