Prevalence and quantification of <i>Lactobacillus</i> in women grouped by non-hormonal contraception methods.

Abstract

<p>LB, <i>Lactobacillus</i>; LB⁺, H₂O₂-producing <i>Lactobacillus</i>; LB^-, non-H₂O₂-producing <i>Lactobacillus.</i> Data are shown as mean ± SE for colony count (log₁₀CFU/ml), gene expression (log₁₀copies/ml) and n(%) for prevalence of women with LB.</p>∧<p>Adjusted for age. ^#Bonferroni correction was used for pairwise comparison (α = 0.017).</p>*<p>Log transformed prior to statistical test. Bold and italic = Significant at the Bonferroni level; italic = Significant but not at the Bonferroni level.</p
