我们评估了BioStar衣原体OIA（光学免疫测定）在内城人群中青春期女性（n = 261）的表现。以两种不同核酸扩增方法为参比标准，BioStar衣原体OIA的灵敏度和特异性分别为59.4%和98.4%。由于其相对较低的灵敏度，除非无法获得实验室检测或不太可能及时返回治疗，否则生物之星衣原体OIA检测只应与更敏感的实验室检测结合使用。
We evaluated the performance of the BioStar Chlamydia OIA (optical immunoassay) in adolescent females (n = 261) from an inner city population. With a reference standard of two different nucleic acid amplification tests, the sensitivity and specificity of the BioStar Chlamydia OIA were 59.4 and 98.4%, respectively. Due to its relatively low sensitivity, the BioStar Chlamydia OIA should only be used in conjunction with more sensitive laboratory tests unless laboratory tests are unavailable or timely return for treatment is unlikely.
