By using a TaqMan assay we monitored longitudinal changes in Mycoplasma genitalium loads in five men with recurrent M. genitalium-positive nongonococcal urethritis. We observed regrowth of M. genitalium persisting in hosts after treatment and a possible association of the increase in the M. genitalium load with emergence of symptoms and signs of nongonococcal urethritis in four of these patients.
通过使用TaqMan检测法,我们监测了5例复发性生殖支原体阳性非淋菌性尿道炎男性患者生殖支原体载量的纵向变化。我们观察到,治疗后生殖支原体在宿主体内持续再生长,并且在其中4例患者中,生殖支原体载量的增加可能与非淋菌性尿道炎的症状和体征出现有关。
