概括
青少年男性在急诊室的克拉米迪亚甲状腺 (CT) 和尼塞利亚淋病 (GC) 检测率较低. 与非西班牙裔白人男性相比,非西班牙裔黑人男性更容易接受测试或查.
科学领域:
- 公共卫生
- 儿童紧急医疗
- 感染性疾病查
背景情况:
- 在青少年女性中,已知存在克拉米迪亚甲状腺菌 (CT) 和尼塞里亚淋病 (GC) 查的种族差异,但在男性中未得到充分研究.
- 在急诊室的青少年男性中CT/GC测试的种族和种族差异数据有限.
研究的目的:
- 通过CT/GC测试和查来比较儿童ED的种族和种族差异.
- 根据这一人口群体的种族和种族,调查性感染查率的潜在差异.
主要方法:
- 在2021年1月至2023年2月期间对13至21岁的男性进行了急救诊所的横截面分析.
- 该研究检查了CT/GC测试和查率,并根据年龄和ED部位进行调整,使用多变量逻辑回归.
主要成果:
- 总体而言,只有3.7%的ED访问包括CT/GC测试或查.
- 在有症状的男性中,测试率为39.5%;非西班牙裔黑人男性的测试率明显高于非西班牙裔白人男性 (11.8%).
- 在非性病的男性中,查率为2.7%;非西班牙裔黑人男性的查率比非西班牙裔白人男性高 (3.5%).
结论:
- 在患儿ED的青少年男性中,CT/GC测试和查率较低.
- 与非西班牙裔白人男性相比,非西班牙裔黑人青少年更容易接受CT/GC测试和查.
- 需要进一步研究以了解这些种族差异的原因, 并制定确保公平的性感染查的策略.
