Statistical Comparisons: † All Cases with UA C/W Acute GBS UTI compared to All Cases with UA C/W GBS ABU. Numbers in parentheses in columns represent the n of subjects who exhibited a positive result for this test, followed by this number expressed as a percentage of the total n of cases in the group.
