• Description:
  Firefighters group showed considerably increased proportion of bacterial families particularly Streptococaceae (p <= 0.05), Prevotellaceae, and Micrococcaceae Firefighters group showed a significantly decreased proportion of families particularly Neisseriaceae, Campylobacteriaceae (p <= 0.05), Weeksellaceae (p <= 0.05), Burkholderiaceae (p <= 0.05), Cardiobacteriaceae (p <= 0.05). Overall, firefighters showed an altered oral microbiome both in terms of proportion and count of multiple individual components. Integrated analyses with questionnaire based metadata implied that some of the compounding factors related to exposure and lifestyle may have significant (P> 0.05) or close to significant impact on the microbiome perturbations in firefighters.
