Multi-omics reveal the effects of probiotics on the postoperative rehabilitation of patients with esophageal cancer

Figure 5 Intestinal microbial populations associated with differentially abundant metabolites. Spearman correlation heat map of top 20 differentially abundant metabolites and microorganisms. Left row shows the microorganisms, and the bottom are listed as metabolites. Benjamini-Hochberg method was used to the results of the Spearman correlation analysis for false discovery rate (FDR) correction. The red ovals represent a positive correlation and the blue ovals represent a negative correlation. The larger the correlation pairs, the finer the ellipse. The blank grid indicates a significant FDR-value greater than 0.05. ^aFDR < 0.05, ^bFDR < 0.01 and ^cFDR < 0.001.
