| Popis: | Women visiting Estonian STD clinics were subjected to PCR assay for human papillomavirus (HPV), Chlamydia trachomatis and Ureaplasma urealyticum biovar 2. The overall prevalence of coinfection was 8%. The chlamydial infection was found to be associated with HPV, especially with high-risk HPV (OR /2.5, p B /0.005) and most significantly in women over 41 y of age. C. trachomatis infection also occurred more frequently in U. urealyticum-infected than in U. urealyticumfree patients (OR /2.6, p /0.02). U. urealyticum infection did not associate with HPV status. The clinical significance of the association between C. trachomatis and U. urelyticum infection remains to be elucidated. |
