The datasets of gut microbiome we reanalyzed in this study were first reported by Guo et al.15 (link)
The stool samples were collected from 83 Chinese adults, including 41 gout patients and 42 healthy individuals. The collected stool samples were pyro-sequenced on Roche GS FLX platform to obtain 535 153 high-quality 16S-rRNA reads by amplifying the V1-V3 region. The 16S-rRNA reads were fed into the bioinformatics pipeline (QIIME V1.5), and a total of 3689 OTUs at 97% similarity level, and their abundances in the form of OTU (operational taxonomic unit) tables were obtained.
