Correlates of reproductive tract infections at the screening visit - bivariable and multivariable models.

BV = bacterial vaginosis; HSV-2 = herpes simplex virus; PSA = prostate specific antigen; Ref = reference category; RTI = reproductive tract infection; Sep/Div/Wid = separated, divorced, or widowed.1Vaginal Candida as diagnosed by wet mount microscopy;287 infections in 73 women;3Bolded p-values indicate significant associations at the level p≤0.100 in the bivariable analysis and were selected for multivariable modelling. Adjusted odd-ratios are only shown for factors which remained statistically significant at p≤0.050 level after stepwise deletion.4Associations remained statistically significant in the non-pregnant women group (N = 219).5Early pregnancy: gestation less than 14 weeks;6Ectopy = cervical ectopy; clinically observed and defined as No = absent, and Yes = small, moderate or large. OR: odds ratio; CI: confidence interval.Correlates of reproductive tract infections at the screening visit - bivariable and multivariable models.
