Etiology of Symptomatic Male Urethritis in the Brazilian Amazon and Agreement Between Two Molecular Testing Workflows.
Among 117 men with symptomatic urethritis in the Brazilian Amazon, Neisseria gonorrhoeae was most frequent (53.0 to 56.4%, across the two molecular workflows), followed by Chlamydia trachomatis (14.5 to 15.4%), Mycoplasma genitalium (6.8%), and Trichomonas vaginalis (1.7%).
