Article Synopsis
- Infection is a common but curable STI, and this study focused on its prevalence among women undergoing cervical cancer screenings in Botucatu, São Paulo, Brazil.
- The research analyzed data from 23,735 women from 2019 to 2022, finding a prevalence of 0.84% in 2019 and 0.57% in 2022, with most infected patients being middle-aged and having lower education levels.
- Additionally, only 15.3% of women with infection showed healthy vaginal microbiota, and precursor lesions for cervical cancer were found in a very small fraction (0.05%) of those with trichomoniasis.
