In a racially mixed community in Gisborne, New Zealand, the prevalence of asymptomatic (covert) bacteriuria of pregnancy was 9.6%. The prevalence in Maori women was 17.1% and in non-Maori women 4.7%. There was a higher prevalence of bacteriuria in the younger women. Escherichia coli was the infecting organism in 58 of the 72 women with bacteriuria. Twenty-five (44%) of the E. coli were resistant to ampicillin and amoxycillin. Fifty-eight (81%) of the women with bacteriuria also had pyuria. In 37 of the 44 women (84%) who received antimicrobial therapy, the infection was cured. Single dose therapy was just as effective as a course of treatment. In 14 of the 28 untreated women, the infection cleared spontaneously. Four of the 28 (14%) patients in the untreated bacteriuric group developed acute pyelonephritis. More patients with bacteriuria had anaemia and a low fetal birth-weight.
在新西兰吉斯伯恩一个多种族混居的社区，孕期无症状（隐匿性）菌尿的患病率为9.6%。毛利族女性的患病率为17.1%，非毛利族女性为4.7%。年轻女性菌尿的患病率更高。72例菌尿女性中有58例感染菌为大肠杆菌。其中25株（44%）大肠杆菌对氨苄西林和阿莫西林耐药。58例（81%）菌尿女性也有脓尿。44例接受抗菌治疗的女性中，37例（84%）感染治愈。单剂量疗法与一个疗程的治疗效果相同。28例未治疗的女性中，14例感染自行清除。未治疗的菌尿组28例患者中有4例（14%）发生急性肾盂肾炎。更多菌尿患者存在贫血和低出生体重儿。
