Protective effect of the identified Lactobacillus sp. against the development of vaginal dysbiosis (A) and their statistical significance with epidemiological factors (B) evaluated in the study. The effect of each Lactobacillus sp. against the presence of a vaginal dysbiosis case was evaluated using logistic regression, where Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus jensenii, and Lactobacillus crispatus show the greatest importance. However, only L. acidophilus and L. jensenii featured a significant p-value, more exactly, 0.035 and 0.050, respectively. Meanwhile, Lactobacillus gasseri and Lactobacillus iners show a null protective effect against the infection when they are evaluated independently.
