| مستخلص: | Mycoplasma genitalium(MG) infections are a growing concern within the field of sexually transmitted infections. However, diagnostic assays for M. genitaliumhave been limited in the United States. As most infections are asymptomatic, individuals can unknowingly pass the infection on, and the prevalence is likely to be underestimated. Diagnosis of M. genitaliuminfection is recommended using a nucleic acid test. This multicenter study assessed the performance of the cobas Trichomonas vaginalis(TV)/MG assay (cobas) for the detection of M. genitalium, using 22,150 urogenital specimens from both symptomatic and asymptomatic men and women collected at geographically diverse sites across the United States. |
