We sought to assess the relationship between bacterial vaginosis (BV) assessed by Gram stain and incident trichomonal (TV), gonococcal (GC) and/or chlamydial (CT) genital infection. 3,620 non-pregnant women aged 15-44 presenting for routine care at 12 clinics in Birmingham, Alabama participated in a longitudinal study. Participants were assessed quarterly for one year. Vaginal smears were categorized by Nugent's Gram stain score (0-3 designated normal, 4-6 intermediate state, 7-10 BV). Pooled logistic regression was used to estimate the hazard ratios (HR) for the comparison of TV/GC/CT incidence in participants by Nugent category at the prior visit. Participants were censored at their first TV/GC/CT-positive visit. Of the 10,606 visits, 37.96% were classified as BV and 13.3% as TV/GC/CT-positive. Intermediate state or BV at the prior visit were associated with a 1.5-2-fold increased risk for incident TV/GC/CT infection (adjusted HR(aHR):1.41, 95% CI:1.12-1.76; aHR: 1.73, 95% CI: 1.42-2.11, respectively, test for trend p=.058). Estimates were similar for TV-only, GC-only and CT-only outcomes. BV microbiota gauged by Gram's stain is associated with a significantly elevated risk for acquisition of TV/GC/CT genital infection.
