Fig. 3From: Gut microbiome alterations in colitis rats after moxibustion at bilateral Tianshu acupointsThe effect of moxibustion on overall community structure at phylum and genus level. A at the phylum level, Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes were the most abundant taxa followed by Proteobacteria in five groups; B at the genus level, Bacteroides, Bacteroides_bacterium_M7, Bacteroides_bacterium_H3 were the most abundant taxa followed by Prevotella in five groups. NG: normal group; UC: UC model group; UC + MOX: moxibustion group; UC + MES: mesalazine group; NG + MOX: normal rats with moxibustion groupBack to article page
