Figures & data
Figure 1. Box plots of five shared features between the Italian and Chinese cohorts. We identified the top 50 features that differentiated the long-living and younger cohorts and in both our Chinese and in the independent Italian cohort. Among the 50 features, 11 were shared between the two cohorts. We previously showed 6 of these 11 features.Citation13 Here, we show the remaining five shared features.
Figure 2. Pie charts showing the average abundance of the bacterial taxa at the genus (a,) and phylum (b,) levels in the long-living and younger Chinese and Italian cohorts.
Figure 3. Two recent studies (from a Japanese cohort (a) and from a Chinese Jiangsu province cohort (b)) found greater gut microbiome diversity in the long-living cohorts than in the younger cohorts.
