Introduction. Despite increasing application of molecular diagnostic methods for the detection of sexually transmitted infections, the cytological findings in pap smears of patients with pathogens that can be identified only by PCR are not yet well described. The aim of this study was to describe the most common cytological features in cervical pap smears of patients with Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Mycoplasma genitalium, Trichomonas vaginalis, Mycoplasma hominis, Ureaplasma urealyticum, and Ureaplasma parvum detected by multiplex PCR. Methods. Cervical samples for conventional and liquid-based cytology and for multiplex PCR were collected from women ranging from 23 to 54 years old, who underwent routine screening at a gynecological Unit. Results. Multiplex PCR was positive in 36.2% of the samples: Ureaplasma parvum 14.9%, Chlamydia trachomatis 10.6%, Trichomonas vaginalis 10.6%, Mycoplasma hominis 8.5%, Ureaplasma urealyticum 4.2%, Neisseria gonorrhoeae 2.1%, and Mycoplasma genitalium (0). Multiple pathogens were observed in 12.8% of samples. Microscopic cervicitis (≥10 polymorphonuclear leukocytes/epithelial cell) and normal (predominantly lactobacillary) microbiota were the most frequent findings in the samples in which the pathogens were detected alone or in multiple infections, except for samples with Trichomonas vaginalis in which the coccobacillary microbiota was the most common. In samples with microscopic cervicitis and normal microbiota, those with at least one pathogen identified by multiplex PCR were significantly more frequent than those with no pathogen, 66.6% versus 33.3%. Conclusion. Failure to identify an inflammatory agent in pap smear with intense neutrophil exudate may suggest the presence of Ureaplasma parvum, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Chlamydia trachomatis, or Trichomonas vaginalis. A remark on the intensity of inflammation should be made in the reports of cervical pap smears so that this cytological finding can be correlated with clinical and PCR results.

Negonorėjinis uretritas (NGU) yra dažniausia vyrų lytinių takų liga. Mokslinių tyrimų rezultatais pagrįsta, kad pagrindiniai sukėlėjai yra Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma genitalium, Ureaplasma urealyticum. Įdiegus pažangius molekulinės diagnostikos metodus, dažnai šlaplės mikrofloroje randama Mycoplasma hominis, Ureaplasma parvum, Gardnerella vaginalis ir kitų saprofitinių mikroorganizmų, kurių svarba uretritų etiopatogenezėje yra prieštaringa ir iki galo neišaiškinta. Negydytas vyrų uretritas gali sukelti sutrikimų, susijusių su reprodukcine bei lytine funkcija, ir yra viena iš pagrindinių nevaisingumo priežasčių. Šio straipsnio tikslas yra, apžvelgus mokslinę literatūrą, išanalizuoti vyrų NGU epidemiologiją, priežastis, diagnostikos ir gydymo galimybes.

Introdução: A microbiota vaginal é um complexo sistema com diversidade de microrganismos. A disbiose parece aumentar o risco de infecções, principalmente as sexualmente transmissíveis, entre as quais por papilomavírus humano, agente associado a lesões cervicais. Objetivo: Avaliar os diferentes tipos de microbiota cervical e as suas características no esfregaço de material residual de citologia em meio líquido, associando com o papilomavírus humano e com Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Mycoplasma genitalium, Mycoplasma hominis, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Trichomonas vaginalis. Métodos: O estudo analisou 179 casos que tinham material residual de citologia em meio líquido. Alíquota do material foi colocado em lâmina adequada, fixado a seco e corado por método de Gram para leitura em microscópio óptico. Outra alíquota foi utilizada para estudo em reação em cadeia da polimerase - transcriptase reversa e multiplex para pesquisas dos microorganismos associados a infecções sexualmente transmissíveis. O teste exato de Fisher com intervalo de confiança foi utilizado para significância estatística. O projeto foi aprovado em comitê de ética sob número 24071519.9.0000.5049 (UniChristus). Resultados: Os casos foram divididos conforme o escore de Nugent aplicado a esfregaços corados pelo método de Gram. Em microbiota cervical normal (escores de 0 a 3), 100 casos (55,86%); em microbiota intermediária (escore de 4 a 6), 51 casos (28,5%); em sugestivo de disbiose (escore de 7 a 10), 28 casos (15,64%). Nos casos de disbiose, foram observados: Chlamydia trachomatis (1[3,57%]), Mycoplasma hominis (7[25%]), Ureaplasma urealyticum (1[3,57%]), papilomavírus humano 16/45 (1[3,57%]), papilomavírus humano de alto risco (AR) (3[10,71%]) e AR e 16/45 (1[3,57%]). No grupo normal, foi a seguinte distribuição: Ureaplasma urealyticum (1[1%]), papilomavírus humano 16 (2[2%]), papilomavírus humano 18/45 (3[3%]), AR (13[13%]). No grupo intermediário, a distribuição foi: Ureaplasma urealyticum (2[3,9%]), papilomavírus humano AR (5[9,8%]) e papilomavírus humano AR, 16 (1[3,9%]). A única diferença significativa foi de Mycoplasma hominis na disbiose (p<0,0001). Conclusão: O estudo não evidenciou uma associação maior no grupo de disbiose com a maioria das infecções sexualmente transmissíveis, no entanto, com Mycoplasma hominis, foi significativo.

Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Trichomonas vaginalis, Ureaplasma parvum, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Mycoplasma hominis and Mycoplasma genitalium are established or presumed as (??) STI pathogens. The present study aims  at ng describing the one-year molecular epidemiology of these seven pathogens in the Province of Bolzano, Northern Italy. From April 2016 to March 2017, a total of  2,949 patients, mainly females, were enrolled and 3,427 urine, vaginal, endocervical and/or urethral samples were subjected to simultaneous analysis of the seven pathogens by means of Real Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (AnyplexTM II STI-7 Detection Kit Seegene, Seoul, Korea). At least one of the seven microorganisms was detected in 40.7% of patients, with an uneven distribution: 43.1% in females (F) and 29.8% (p<0.001) in males (M). The prevalence of microorganisms was as follows: 30.3% U. parvum (F: 35.6%, M: 8.3%), 6.9% U. urealyticum (F: 6.8%, M: 7.0%), 4.9% M. hominis (F: 5.4%, M: 2.3%), 4.9% C. trachomatis (F: 3.4%, M: 11.4%), 1.1% M. genitalium (F: 1.0%, M: 1.2%), 1.2% N. gonorrhoeae (F: 0.17%, M: 5.6%) and 0.40% T. vaginalis (F: 0.38%, M: 0.53%). Mixed infections were detected in 7.4% of patients. The highest prevalence was observed for U. parvum, followed by U. urealyticum and M. hominis and a significant  presence of multi-pathogen infections was registered.

ABSTRACT We performed in vitro susceptibility testing for eravacycline in comparison to 4 other antimicrobials against 10 Mycoplasma genitalium, 40 Mycoplasma hominis, 44 Mycoplasma pneumoniae, 20 Ureaplasma parvum, and 20 Ureaplasma urealyticum isolates. All eravacycline MICs were ≤0.25 μg/ml, except that for one isolate of M. genitalium, for which the MIC was 2 μg/ml. Eravacycline was markedly more potent than tetracycline, azithromycin, moxifloxacin, and clindamycin against all isolates tested, which included 37 macrolide, tetracycline, and/or fluoroquinolone-resistant organisms.

This is to investigate the cervical cytological abnormalities associated withChlamydia trachomatis,Mycoplasma hominis,Mycoplasma genitalium,andUreaplasma urealyticuminfections on routine screen. A total of 714 subjects who had undergone cervical Pap smears and concomitant analyses for cervical infections were included by a retrospective search. The frequencies of reactive cellular change (RCC) and squamous epithelial abnormalities were significantly higher inChlamydiapositive subjects than in uninfected subjects(P<0.001). Of the 124 subjects tested forM. hominis,M. genitalium, andU. urealyticum, 14 (11%) were positive forM. hominisand 29 (23%) were positive forU. urealyticum. Squamous abnormalities were more frequent in subjects withUreaplasmainfections than in uninfected subjects (24% versus 8%). Taking together these findings,C. trachomatisandU. urealyticummay have a causal role in the development of cervical epithelial changes, including RCC. Thus, extra awareness is warranted in cervical screening of women withChlamydiaorUreaplasmainfections.
