Microbiome data on ulcer body site. A. Stacked bar plot of the most abundant 20 genera found in the intralesional samples of patients with ulcer located at plantar, lower leg or heel before treatment initiation. B. Stacked bar plot of the most abundant 20 genera found after 20 days of treatment (t20) in intralesional samples collected from patients with ulcer located at plantar, lower leg or heel. C. Top 20 taxa at genus level of the 5 patient samples from plantar or lower leg ulcers at t0. The table below summarizes the result of post-hoc pairwise comparison (multi-group only) performing the regular Welch t-tests. The multi-testing adjustment is based on Benjamini-Hochberg procedure (FDR). No statistically significant difference was observed in the alpha diversity between groups (FDR always >0.05). D. Top 20 taxa at genus level of the 5 patient samples from plantar or lower leg ulcers at t20. The table below summarizes the result of post-hoc pairwise comparison (multi-group only) performing the regular Welch t-tests. Statistically significant difference was observed in the alpha diversity between the plantar and the lower leg group (FDR = 0.005).
