We examined the factors influencing gonorrhea detection at the pharynx. One hundred men infected with Neisseria gonorrhoeae were swabbed from the tonsils and posterior oropharynx. N. gonorrhoeae was reisolated from the tonsils and posterior oropharynx in 62% and 52%, respectively (P = 0.041). Culture positivity was greater with higher gonococcal DNA loads at the tonsils (P = 0.001) and oropharynx (P < 0.001). N. gonorrhoeae can be cultured from the tonsils and posterior oropharynx with greater isolation rates where gonococcal loads are higher.
我们研究了影响咽部淋病检测的因素。对100名感染淋病奈瑟菌的男性进行扁桃体和口咽后部拭子采样。分别从62%的扁桃体和52%的口咽后部再次分离出淋病奈瑟菌(P = 0.041)。扁桃体(P = 0.001)和口咽(P < 0.001)处淋病奈瑟菌DNA载量越高,培养阳性率越高。在淋病奈瑟菌载量较高的情况下,从扁桃体和口咽后部培养出淋病奈瑟菌的分离率更高。
