Microbiota differences of early S. aureus VAP vs non-VAP patients during the first 3 days of intubation assessed by Principal coordinates analysis (PCoA). PCoA was based on the Bray–Curtis dissimilarity matrix of square-root transformed relative abundances of bacterial species. Bacterial communities defined by the sampling day and VAP occurrence were grouped to centroids. For this analysis of centroids, patient 1 was considered “non-VAP” as the VAP occurred on day 7 (late VAP). Difference was not significant on day 1 (PERMANOVA p > 0.05). D = day post-intubation
