Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Women with vaginal microbial community state types (CST) with high diversity and a paucity of Lactobacillus crispatus have increased risk of HIV acquisition. Identifying host genetic factors associated with the vaginal microbial composition may aid in elucidating the biological mechanisms regulating these microbial traits and inter-individual variations in associated diseases...
