Absolute abundance calculation enhances the significance of microbiome data in antibiotic treatment studies

BackgroundThe intestinal microbiota contributes to the colonization resistance of the gut towards bacterial pathogens. Antibiotic treatment often negatively affects the microbiome composition, rendering the host more susceptible for infections. However, a correct interpretation of such a perturbatio...
