Two Streptococcus pyogenes emm types and several anaerobic bacterial species are associated with idiopathic cutaneous ulcers in children after community-based mass treatment with azithromycin
Fig 1
Top 10 most relatively abundant taxa from ulcers in the stringent dataset.
Box and whisker plots using (A) all identified taxa, (B) only bacterial taxa, and (C) only viral taxa. All box plots show medians with hinges corresponding to the 25th and 75th percentiles and whiskers extending no further than 1.5x interquartile range from the hinges. Red diamonds signify means. Medians are shifted toward zero due to the absence of many of the taxa in the majority of the specimens (N = 139).
