TL;DR: There is a higher incidence of Corynebacterium vaginale in pregnant women than in nonpregnant women, and statistical analyses of the data strongly suggests that C.vaginale is a common causative agent of vaginitis.
Abstract: A total of 1,008 women attending a public clinic for pregnancy, postpartum care, and gynecologic complaints was studied for the presence of Corynebacterium vaginale (Haemophilus vaginalis) . The overall incidence was 18.9%. In the pregnant group, those with vaginitis had an isolation rate of 44.0%, compared with a rate of 10.4% among those without vaginitis. Statistical analyses of the data strongly suggests that C. vaginale is a common causative agent of vaginitis. There is a higher incidence of Corynebacterium vaginale in pregnant women than in nonpregnant women.

TL;DR: This paper replicated Bradley's (1970) investigation of various parts-of-speech as information sources for responses to reading-comprehension test items, 180 Ss in Grades 3, 4, and 5 were assigned to treatment groups which corresponded to grammatical deletions made in the reading paragraphs.
Abstract: To replicate Bradley's (1970) investigation of various parts-of-speech as information sources for responses to reading-comprehension test items, 180 Ss in Grades 3, 4, and 5 were assigned to treatment groups which corresponded to grammatical deletions made in the reading paragraphs. Nouns were confirmed as the primary information source and adjectives were not confirmed as an information source. It was concluded that some artifact of task, administration, or random error was responsible for the previous finding of adjectives as information sources for responses to reading-comprehension test items.
