- 1895, Robert William Taylor, The Pathology and Treatment of Venereal Diseases, Lea Brothers & Co., Chapter XXX, page 288:
- He showed that there had been 33 per cent. of male gonorrhœic infections previous to marriage, 26 in all, and, taking all cases of abortion, sterility, uterine and pelvic inflammations, and living births that had occurred in these 81 families, he showed conclusively that there had been the merest fractional difference in their proportion between the previously healthy and not previously infected classes. As regards inflammatory pelvic affections, the balance was fractional in favor of the free‐gonorrhœic cases, in other respects equally fractional in favor of the non‐gonorrhœic.
