In a clinical and microbiological study of women with urinary frequency and dysuria (excluding those with bacterial cystitis), 41 patients were compared with 42 control subjects. No difference was found between patients and controls in the incidence of infection by Chlamydia trachomatis or other sexually transmitted organisms. The numbers of lactobacilli and other fastidious organisms in the urine of patients with either mild or severe symptoms were similar and did not differ from the numbers in the urine of control subjects. The numbers of leucocytes in urine were also similar in both patients and controls. Our findings support the view that the urethral syndrome is not caused by bacterial or chlamydial infection.
在一项针对尿频和排尿困难女性（不包括细菌性膀胱炎患者）的临床和微生物学研究中，将41例患者与42名对照者进行了比较。沙眼衣原体或其他性传播病原体感染的发生率在患者和对照者之间未发现差异。症状轻微或严重的患者尿液中乳酸杆菌和其他苛求菌的数量相似，与对照者尿液中的数量没有差异。患者和对照者尿液中的白细胞数量也相似。我们的研究结果支持尿道综合征不是由细菌或衣原体感染引起的这一观点。
