ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the prevalence of urogenital tract infections with Ureaplasma urealyticum (UU) and human papilloma virus (HPV) in males of reproductive age and the associated factors.METHODS:
Using the multi-stage cluster sampling method and a structured questionnaire, we conducted an investigation among 18ï¼50 years old males in Songjiang District, Shanghai, from August 2016 to July 2018. We collected secretory specimens from the urogenital tract of the subjects and detected the infections of UU and HPV by laboratory examination.RESULTS:
Among the 621 males included in this study, 279 (44.93%) were found infected with UU, 18 (2.90%) with HPV, and 15 (2.42%) with both UU and HPV. Univariate analysis showed that smokers had a higher rate of UU infection (50.54% ï¼»140/277ï¼½) than non-smokers (40.41 ï¼»139/344ï¼½), and those with senior high school or secondary technical school education had a higher rate of HPV infection (4.84% ï¼»12/248ï¼½) than others (1.61% ï¼»6/373ï¼½). Binary stepwise logistic regression analysis revealed a higher risk of UU infection in the subjects with junior high school or lower education than in others (OR = 0.61, 95% CI 0.39ï¼0.96) as well as in smokers than in non-smokers (OR = 1.46, 95% CI 1.01ï¼2.01).CONCLUSIONS:
The prevalence of UU infection is high, while that of HPV is low among men of reproductive age in Songjiang, Shanghai. The screening of UU infection should be enhanced among men of reproductive age, especially among smokers and those with lower education.Palabras clave
