A study of the prevalence of urinary tract infection (UTI) in 430 women attending a clinic for sexually transmitted diseases and its relationship to sexual activity is presented. UTI, usually asymptomatic, was found to be slightly more common in women attending the clinic than in the general population, its prevalence being 4.9%. UTI was more commonly found in patients who gave a history of recent sexual intercourse, which suggests that recent coitus was a factor in the development of significant bacteriuria. The likelihood of finding significant bacteriuria was not related to the number of sexual partners in the previous year. Trichomoniasis was more common in the small group of patients with UTI than in other women. The most common causative organism of UTI was Escherichia coli, and the isolates were usually sensitive to ampicillin, sulphonamides, trimethoprim, and nitrofurantoin.
本文呈现了一项针对430名前往性病诊所就诊的女性的尿路感染（UTI）患病率及其与性活动关系的研究。UTI通常无症状，在就诊女性中发现其比普通人群略为常见，患病率为4.9%。UTI在有近期性交史的患者中更常见，这表明近期性交是导致显著菌尿症发生的一个因素。发现显著菌尿症的可能性与前一年性伴侣的数量无关。滴虫病在UTI患者的小群体中比其他女性更常见。UTI最常见的致病菌是大肠杆菌，分离株通常对氨苄西林、磺胺类药物、甲氧苄啶和呋喃妥因敏感。
