Comparison of gut microbiota composition and diversity. Species composition of metagenomes was determined by MetaPhlAn4. A Beta diversity expressed as Aitchison distances in a principal component analysis (PCA). Percentages on the X- and Y-axis represent the variance explained by the first two components. B Aitchison distance from patient species profile to corresponding donor. C–E Species richness, Shannon index and Simpson evenness compared between donors and recipients, respectively. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences, ****: p < 0.0001; FMT: faecal microbiota transplantation, LTFU: long-term follow-up
