Sex differences in alpha diversity before and after SPS. Alpha diversity was measured using OTU counts A before SPS, B after SPS. Fecal samples collected from each rat were sent for 16S sequencing. Due to technical difficulties stool samples were not collected from every single animal. Each symbol represents the value for an individual animal. Before SPS (blue bars—males control n = 7, SPS-R n = 6, SPS-S n = 5; pink bars—females control n = 9, SPS-R n = 6, SPS-S n = 5), following SPS (blue bars—males control n = 7, SPS-R n = 6, SPS-S n = 4; pink bars—females control n = 8, SPS-R n = 8, SPS-S n = 5)
