The correlation between clinical parameters (inflammatory and immunological) and bacterial diversity (alpha and beta). A and B The correlation between inflammatory (A) or immunological (B) indices and salivary bacterial diversity. The length of the black bar shows the R square value of the indices-beta diversity correlation. The results were acquired by the redundancy analysis (RDA) using the R software (v 4.0.1) with the vegan (v 2.5–7) package. The color box shows the rho value of indices-alpha diversity correlation. The results were analyzed from Spearman’s correlation using the R software (v 4.0.1) with the vegan (v 2.5–7) package. The star symbols behind the left words show the P-values acquired from the RDA. The box’s star symbols show the adjusted P-values (false discovery rate, FDR) received from the Spearman’s correlation. (same methodology as in C–F). C and D The correlation between inflammatory (C) or immunological (D) indices and buccal bacterial diversity. E and F The correlation between inflammatory (E) or immunological (F) indices and buccal bacterial diversity
