Resistance to macrolides and quinolones among HIV-positive MSM infected with Mycoplasma genitalium
The findings highlight a high prevalence of macrolide-resistant MG infections among HIV-positive MSM, with a notable proportion also exhibiting macrolide quinolone resistance. Given the asymptomatic nature of many MG infections and the increasing challenge of antimicrobial resistance, routine screening for MG in this population may provide limited clinical benefits.
