Numbers of women discharged from hospital after being treated for acute salpingitis decreased by 40% in Sweden between 1974 and 1984. Several factors argue that this decrease was real, rather than a shift from inpatient to outpatient treatment. (Outpatients here include those treated by general practitioners as well as at hospital outpatient clinics). The decrease was nation wide and included all age groups. Repeat episodes of the disease decreased more than first episodes. The main reason for the decrease seems to be more strict attitudes to sexual relationships, especially in young people. Public and professional awareness of genital chlamydial infections was probably a contributing factor.
1974年至1984年间,瑞典因急性输卵管炎接受治疗后出院的女性人数减少了40%。有几个因素表明,这种减少是真实的,而非从住院治疗转向门诊治疗(这里的门诊病人包括由全科医生治疗以及在医院门诊诊所治疗的病人)。这种减少在全国范围内出现,涵盖了所有年龄组。该疾病的复发次数比首次发病次数减少得更多。减少的主要原因似乎是对性关系的态度更加严谨,尤其是在年轻人中。公众和专业人士对生殖道衣原体感染的认识可能是一个促成因素。
