Data were evaluated to determine the benefit of extragenital screening among men who have sex with men in detecting chlamydia/gonorrhea infections. More than seventy percent of chlamydia infections and >80% of gonorrhea infections would have been missed with urine testing alone in the course of a year. Extragenital testing is critical for identifying sexually transmitted diseases among men who have sex with men.
对数据进行评估,以确定男男性行为者进行生殖器外筛查在检测衣原体/淋病感染方面的益处。在一年的时间里,仅通过尿液检测会漏诊超过70%的衣原体感染和超过80%的淋病感染。生殖器外检测对于识别男男性行为者中的性传播疾病至关重要。
