Abstract
Chlamydia trachomatisinfection. C. trachomatiswithin a year after their first visit. At the first visit, the composition and structure of vaginal microbial communities were analysed using 16S rRNA sequencing in the context of the sociodemographic and sexual risk behaviour information using logistic regression. C. trachomatisinfection (p=0.04; OR: 2.6, 95% CI 1.0 to 6.6). C. trachomatisinfection. Therefore, we hypothesise that specific signatures of vaginal microbiota are indicative of increased host predisposition to acquiring STIs
