Table 1

Severity of bacterial vaginosis by Nugent score in relation to prevalence, proportion symptomatic, and the mean vaginal pH in HIV uninfected pregnant women.

Variable	Nugent Score	Prevalence; N (%; 95%CI)	Symptomatic (Abnormal Vaginal Discharge); N (%)	Vaginal pH; Mean±SD; pH>4.4; N (%)
Severe Bacterial Vaginosis	9-10	90 (12.0; 9.9-14.5)	51 (56.7)	4.8±0.6; 63 (70.0)
Moderate Bacterial Vaginosis	7-8	190 (25.3; 22.4-28.6)	97 (51.1)	4.8±0.6; 119 (64.0)
Intermediate	4-6	121 (16.1; 13.7-18.9)	48 (39.7)	4.7±0.6; 63 (53.4)
Normal	0-3	349 (46.5; 42.9-50.1 )	104 (29.8)	4.4±0.5; 114 (33.4)
