A group of 41 cats with signs of lower urinary tract disease was compared to a group of 41 cats without any history of disease for prevalence of seropositivity for feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV). The group of healthy cats was similar in age and gender to the group of cats with signs of lower urinary tract disease. Three of the cats with lower urinary tract disease and one control cat were seropositive for FIV. This difference was not statistically significant. The most common cause of lower urinary tract signs was idiopathic. Only 7 cats had urinary tract infection, most associated with perineal urethrostomy or catheterization. Six of the cats with bacterial urinary tract infections were FIV negative.
将一组41只出现下泌尿道疾病症状的猫与一组41只无任何疾病史的猫进行比较，以确定猫免疫缺陷病毒（FIV）血清阳性率。健康猫组在年龄和性别上与有下泌尿道疾病症状的猫组相似。41只有下泌尿道疾病症状的猫中有3只FIV血清呈阳性，41只对照猫中有1只FIV血清呈阳性。这种差异无统计学意义。下泌尿道症状最常见的原因是特发性的。只有7只猫患有尿路感染，大多数与会阴尿道造口术或导尿有关。6只患有细菌性尿路感染的猫FIV检测呈阴性。
