Chord-diagram visualizing the correlation between disease severity and ESBL carriage, taking into account the history of antibiotic treatment in patients with UC. Our findings revealed that the severity of the disease was linked to the presence of ESBL producers, regardless of whether UC patients had received long-term antibiotic treatment prior to that

Abbreviations: ESBL+, carriage of ESBL-producers; ESBL-, carriage of ESBL non-producers; PriorCeph+, patients had a history of antibiotic treatment with cephalosporins; PriorCeph-, patients had no history of long-term exposure to cephalosporins previously
