Schematic representation of the bacterial element of the urinary tract microbiome identified in the urine samples of patients and control individuals with positive and negative urine cultures. Blue arrow—dialysis patients, green arrow—patients after kidney transplantation, red arrow—controls; green triangles—names of identified bacteria genera of the bacterial element of the urinary tract microbiome that were found to be discriminative in the studied groups of patients.
