Genus-level vaginal microbiome compositions in women of control group and PID patients. Data for minor orders with a relative abundance < 1% are not shown.

Boxplot of Species richness indices.A) Ace (p = 0.274), B) Chao1 (p = 0.289), C) Jackknife (p = 0.267) indices and D) The number of OTUs (p = 0.299) reflects the diversity of OTU in samples. Bars indicate the median, and the hinges represent the lower and upper quartiles. In panels (A-D), no statistically significant differences were observed between the normal control women and PID patients. The Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to determine the species richness.

Boxplot of Species diversity indices.NP Shannon (p = 0.251), Shannon (p = 0.091), Simpson (p = 0.007), Phylogenetic diversity (p = 0.373) reflect the diversity of OTU in samples. Bars indicate the median, and the hinges represent the lower and upper quartiles. The Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used to determine the diversity index. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01

Beta diversity of microbial communities based on Jensen-Shannon divergence, Bray-Curtis, Generalized UniFrac, and UniFrac.A) PCoA plots were produced as an ellipse in two dimensions based on a 95% confidence interval. B) PCoA plots were also presented in 3D. The blue/purple color indicates normal control women, and the light green/red color indicates PID patients, respectively. C) Permutational multivariate analysis of variance (PERMANOVA) results demonstrated the beta set-significance between the PID patient and normal control women groups. **p < 0.01.

Clustering using the Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic mean (UPGMA).

Taxonomic abundance with an LDA effect size of more than 5.

The relative level of organic acids in normal control women and PID patients. In the PID patient group, lactate was significantly decreased compared to the control group, whereas the concentrations of 4-hydroxyphenylacetate and 2-hydroxylsovalerate were significantly increased. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01.
