MASLD but not HIV determined a different microbiota structure (HIV +MASLD-vs.HIV + MASLD + , q-value = 0.002; HIV -MASLD + vs. HIV + MASLD + , q-value = 0.930; and HIV - MASLD + vs. HIV + MASLD -, q-value < 0.001). The most abundant genera in MASLD-were Prevotella, Bacteroides, Dialister, Acidaminococcos, Alloprevotella, andCatenibacterium. In contrast, the most enriched genera in MASLD+ were Ruminococcus, Streptococcus, Holdemanella, Blautia, and Lactobacillus.We found a microbiome signature linked to MASLD, which had a greater influence on the overall structure of the gut microbiota than HIV status alone.
