Characteristics of gut microbiota composition after chronic noise exposure. a The enriched taxa in the cecal microbiota of mice are represented in cladograms. The central point represents the root of the tree (bacteria), and each ring represents the next lower taxonomic level (phylum to genus). The diameter of each circle represents the relative abundance of the taxon (n = 5). b The most differentially abundant taxa in each group identified by LDA scores generated from the LEfSe analysis (n = 5). c Comparison of the relative abundances of the dominant phyla in all groups. d Ratio of Firmicutes to Bacteroidetes in each group. e Comparison of relative abundances at the bacterial genus level in all groups. *p < 0.05, Mann-Whitney U test. HN high-intensity noise exposure, LN low-intensity noise exposure
