AI Article Synopsis

  • Out of 419 urogenital swabs, 57 were found to be positive for the targeted infection, which is about 13.6%.
  • Five genetic variants were identified, with genotype E being the most common at 36.4%, followed by G (23.6%), H (21.8%), D (16.4%), and F (1.8%), marking it as the first research on genital infection genotypes in symptomatic men in Istanbul, Turkey.

Article Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the prevalence and distribution of urogenital genotypes in symptomatic male patients who were referred to the clinics of the Istanbul Faculty of Medicine. Of 419 urogenital swabs, 57 samples (13.6 %) were positive for . Genotype distribution of -positive samples identified five genetic variants namely genotype E as the most prevalent (36.4 %), followed by genotype G (23.6 %), H (21.8 %), D (16.4 %) and F (1.8 %). We believe that this is the first study on distribution of genotypes of genital infections in symptomatic men in Istanbul, Turkey.
