Sex With Men

In this study, we assessed if there was a city-level association between sexually transmitted infection (STI) screening intensity in men who have sex with men and antimicrobial sensitivity in Neisseria gonorrhoeae in the United States, 2007 to 2013.  We found positive associations between STI screening intensity and increases in minimum inhibitory concentrations for cefixime and azithromycin, but not ceftriaxone.

Tract Infections

Renal and genitourinary complaints are common presentations to the emergency department. Urinary tract infections are among the top three sites of infection in patients presenting to the emergency department. Nephrolithiasis is also a common reason for patients to present due to the severe associated pain. Greater than 20 million patients in the United States are diagnosed with a sexually transmitted infection yearly and many of these present to the emergency department due to the associated discomfort and related symptoms. Other conditions related to the renal and genitourinary systems, though less common, are important for emergency providers to be adept at managing.
