Arcanobacterium haemolyticum was found in 1.4% and beta-haemolytic streptococci in 23% of throat cultures from army conscripts with sore throat (n = 498). 38% of the beta-haemolytic streptococci were of group A. Patients culture-positive for A. haemolyticum or beta-haemolytic streptococci had pharyngeal exudate, cervical lymphadenopathy and ear ache significantly more often--but cough less often--than culture-negative patients. The pharyngeal colonization rate of healthy conscripts (n = 232) by A. haemolyticum was 0.4% and by beta-haemolytic streptococci, 6.5%.
在498名咽痛的应征入伍士兵的咽拭子培养中，1.4%发现溶血隐秘杆菌，23%发现β溶血性链球菌。38%的β溶血性链球菌属于A组。溶血隐秘杆菌或β溶血性链球菌培养呈阳性的患者，与培养呈阴性的患者相比，咽渗出物、颈部淋巴结病和耳痛更为常见——但咳嗽较少见。232名健康应征入伍士兵中，溶血隐秘杆菌的咽部定植率为0.4%，β溶血性链球菌为6.5%。
