Taxonomic composition of the microbiome community between subgroups. A Dominant phyla based on PD-L1 expression levels (N = 84); high PD-L1 expression (N = 25); low PD-L1 expression (N = 59). B Dominant genera based on PD-L1 expression levels (N = 84); high PD-L1 expression (N = 25); low PD-L1 expression (N = 59). Differential abundances of the phyla C Proteobacteria and D Firmicutes based on PD-L1 expression levels. Comparison of the α diversity in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid microbiomes between the high- and low-PD-L1 expression groups. E Shannon index, F Simpson index. PD-L1, programmed death-ligand 1; upper box = 2nd quartile; mid line = median; lower box = 3rd quartile; whiskers = highest and lowest quartile
