We evaluated the performance of the BioStar Chlamydia OIA (optical immunoassay) in adolescent females (n = 261) from an inner city population. With a reference standard of two different nucleic acid amplification tests, the sensitivity and specificity of the BioStar Chlamydia OIA were 59.4 and 98.4%, respectively. Due to its relatively low sensitivity, the BioStar Chlamydia OIA should only be used in conjunction with more sensitive laboratory tests unless laboratory tests are unavailable or timely return for treatment is unlikely.
我们评估了BioStar衣原体光免疫分析(OIA)在来自市中心城区的青春期女性(n = 261)中的性能。以两种不同核酸扩增试验作为参考标准,BioStar衣原体OIA的敏感性和特异性分别为59.4%和98.4%。由于其敏感性相对较低,BioStar衣原体OIA仅应与更敏感的实验室检测联合使用,除非无法进行实验室检测或不太可能及时返回接受治疗。
