Methods for testing for mycoplasma chlamydia in men

When you go to the hospital, you will find that both men and women, young and old, are all in the hospital, and everyone's condition is different, so the departments that need to be checked are also different, and the measures taken are also different! So, what are the methods for testing for mycoplasma in men? The following editor will introduce it to you, I hope to help you better understand.

With the influence of modern life, the detection rate of non-gonococcal urethritis and gonorrhea is increasing year by year, and for non-gonococcal urethritis, mycoplasma chlamydia is mostly tested. It can be used in patients with gonorrhea infection, because the symptoms of gonorrhea are severe, and the symptoms of mycoplasma chlamydia infection are often masked, which makes clinical treatment easy to repeat and increase the difficulty of cure. Therefore, it is also necessary to do a mycoplasma chlamydia test for patients with gonorrhea infection.

Mycoplasma chlamydia in men is tested as follows:

1. Blood routine: peripheral blood white blood cell count is generally normal and eosinophilia.

2. X-ray examination: chlamydia pneumonia chest x-ray is non-specific, mostly unilateral lower lobe infiltration, manifested as segmental pneumonia, severe cases of extensive bilateral pneumonia, trachomata chlamydia pneumonia, chest x-ray shows bilateral extensive interstitial and alveolar infiltrates, hyperinflation signs are more common, and occasional lobar consolidation is seen.

3. Direct smear microscopic examination: take specimens from pharyngeal secretions, sputum, respiratory tract membrane or other parts for smear staining, GZmesa chromatogen staining red, original body dyeing dark blue, chlamydia trachomatis, inclusion body staining brown because it contains glycogen 801.

4. Rapid antigen detection: monoclonal antibody direct immunofluorescence method is mostly used to detect chlamydia in specimens, and anti-chlamydia antibody, enzyme labeling antibody 18G and substrate can also be added for colorimetric quantitative detection, which are simple and sensitive.

5. Chlamydia isolation pneumoniae culture, it is best to use Hela cells or Hep-2 cells, generally take trachea or nasopharyngeal aspirates as clinical specimens, and inoculate in time, at present, chlamydia identification mostly uses Hela cells or Hep-2 cells after culture, through the specific monoclonal fluorescent antibody method (MFA), the technology has high sensitivity and strong specificity, if the specimen can be collected early, positive results can be obtained within 48h

6. The serological test uses complement fixation test, and the serum antibody titer in the convalescent phase is 4 times or more than 4 times higher than that in the acute stage, that is, it has diagnostic significance but no early diagnostic significance, and the microimmunofluorescence method (MrF) is suitable for Chlamydia trachomatis.

7. pcR technology: The detection of Chlamydia pneumoniae-specific DNA by ordinary pcR technology has the advantages of fast, simple and specific, and the sensitivity is higher than that of cell separation technology, but the effect of detecting throat swabs in specimens is not ideal, and the sensitivity can be significantly improved by sleeve pcR detection.

Because the male mycoplasma chlamydia is more sensitive to urethral epithelial cells, male patients mostly have typical urethritis symptoms, and mycoplasma chlamydia will also invade the prostate tissues near the urethra. If Mycoplasma chlamydia is detected, the patient should be treated promptly to avoid causing a larger disease.
