本研究的目的是评估一种新的沙眼原体筛查方法,该方法基于家庭抽样策略,并使用互联网作为参与者获取检测结果的设施。在瑞典于默奥的初级保健机构设计了一项基于人群的筛查研究。它包括所有22岁的男性(n=1074),居住在Umea,一个拥有10万居民的城市。参与率为38.5%。在研究组中,1.1%感染沙眼衣原体。参与者在互联网上获得结果,感染沙眼原体的男性中有四分之三独立寻求治疗。访问互联网的次数超过了尿样检测的次数。互联网沙眼衣原体筛查策略取得了迄今为止公布的最高男性参与率,并覆盖了高危人群以外的年轻男性。
The objective of this study was to evaluate a new C. trachomatis screening method based on a home sampling strategy and using the internet as a facility for the participants to obtain their test results. A population based screening study was designed in primary care setting in Umea, Sweden. It included all males aged 22 years (n=1074), living in Umea, a city with 100 000 inhabitants. The participation rate was 38.5%. In the study group, 1.1% were infected with C. trachomatis. Participants obtained their results on the internet and three quarters of males infected with C. trachomatis sought medical treatment independently. The number of times the internet was visited exceeded the number of urine samples tested. The internet C. trachomatis screening strategy achieved the highest male participation rate yet published, and also reached young males outside the high risk groups.
