Profile of sexually transmitted infections causing urethritis and a related inflammatory reaction in urine among heterosexual males: A flow-cytometry study
Fig 2
The distribution of bacteria in first-voided urine according to flow cytometry in case of each urethritis-associated STI pathogen.
Concentration of bacteria (A) and total count of bacteria (B). Concentration of bacteria per 1 μl of first-voided urine. Only STI monoinfections are displayed, 17 cases with combined STI have been excluded. For Fig 1A patients with and without sample volume were included. For Fig 1B only patients with sample volume were included (excluding 81 patients with monoinfectious STI: 55 cases with C. trachomatis, 19 cases with M. genitalium, 7 cases with N. gonorrhoeae). Mann-Whitney test with Bonferroni correction for 10 tests [A: Control vs. N. gonorrhoeae, B: Control vs. C. trachomatis, C: Control vs. M. genitalium, D: Control vs. T. vaginalis, E: N. gonorrhoeae vs. C. trachomatis, F: N. gonorrhoeae vs. M. genitalium, G: N. gonorrhoeae vs. T. vaginalis, H: C. trachomatis vs. M. genitalium, I: C. trachomatis vs. T. vaginalis, J: M. genitalium vs. T. vaginalis]. A, B, C, E, F—p<0.005.
