Using the passive hemagglutination test, 588 sera of patients with chronic pyelonephritis and 163 sera of pregnant women with persistent bacteriuria were investigated for the presence of antibodies aginst the enterobacterial common antigen (ECA). 10.2 percent of titers in the pyelonephritis group and 6.1 percent of titers of the pregnant women showed values higher than 1:16. The results were compared to a group of blood donors where 0.9 percent of the sera had pathological titers. The demonstration of ECA antibodies does not seem to be suitable for the diagnosis of urinary tract infections.
采用被动血凝试验，对588例慢性肾盂肾炎患者的血清和163例持续性菌尿孕妇的血清进行检测，以确定是否存在针对肠道细菌共同抗原（ECA）的抗体。肾盂肾炎组中10.2%的滴度以及孕妇组中6.1%的滴度显示高于1:16。将结果与一组献血者进行比较，献血者组中0.9%的血清具有病理性滴度。ECA抗体的检测似乎不适用于尿路感染的诊断。
