    No Pathogen-Specific Sign or Symptom Predicts the Etiology of Monomicrobial Nongonococcal Urethritis in Men
    (Wolters Kluwer, 2020-05) Jordan, Stephen J.; Toh, Evelyn; Williams, James A.; Fortenberry, Lora; LaPradd, Michelle; Ryan, John D.; Nelson, David E.; Batteiger, Teresa A.; Medicine, School of Medicine
    Identifying pathogen-specific signs or symptoms of nongonococcal urethritis could improve syndromic management accuracy. We evaluated nongonococcal urethritis signs and symptoms in 220 men with single-pathogen infections (Chlamydia trachomatis, Mycoplasma genitalium, Trichomonas vaginalis, or Ureaplasma urealyticum) or idiopathic urethritis. No individual sign or symptom accurately predicted the infectious etiology.
