Article Synopsis
- Trichomonas vaginalis is the leading sexually transmitted parasitic infection globally, and it can harbor the Trichomonas vaginalis virus (TVV), with four known species identified.
- A novel nested reverse-transcriptase PCR was developed to detect TVV RNA directly in infected clinical samples from the Netherlands, where 50.4% of T. vaginalis cases showed TVV infection, particularly in type I strains.
- The presence of TVV was linked to reporting urogenital symptoms, suggesting TVV may impact the clinical outcomes of T. vaginalis infections.
