We describe the epidemiology of Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) among San Francisco County Jail inmates using APTIMA TV analyte-specific reagents on remnant urine. We detected TV in 15/713 (2.1%) men and 95/297 (32.0%) women. Among women, increased age was significantly associated with TV. The benefits of TV screening should be determined.
我们使用 APTIMA TV 分析物特异性试剂在剩余尿液中描述了旧金山县监狱囚犯中阴道毛滴虫 (TV) 的流行病学。我们在 713 名男性中的 15 名(2.1%)和 297 名女性中的 95 名(32.0%)中检测到了 TV。在女性中,年龄增长与 TV 显著相关。应确定 TV 筛查的益处。
