Quantification of bacterial species of the vaginal microbiome in different groups of women, using nucleic acid amplification tests

Table 4 Latent class analysis for the presence of species at baseline

a. Probability (%) of species presence in each of the latent classes
	Group 1	Group 2	Group 3
L. crispatus	90	63	50
L. iners	88	43	89
L. jensenii	84	24	21
L. gasseri	29	87	6
L. vaginalis	79	70	16
G. vaginalis	50	36	95
A. vaginae	19	15	72
b. Prevalence (%) of the three latent classes by risk population/BV class
	Group 1	Group 2	Group 3
HP	47	47	6
CP BV neg - Caucasian	64	29	7
CP BV neg - other	35	11	54
CP BV pos	9	10	81

HP = Healthy population; CPBVneg = Clinic population women without BV; CPBVpos = Clinic population women with BV.
