| Description: |
Objective: To determine risk factors for chlamydial or gonococcal urethritis among adult mail detainees at Cook County Jail.
Goal: To combine risk factors into algorithms to focus screening efforts on detainees at high risk of infection.
Study design: We interviewed a cohort of adult male detainees and tested them for chlamydial or gonococcal urethritis during jail intake between 6/24-7/29/2004. We performed a nested case-control study among survey respondents. |
