Infections of chlamydia trachomatis, mycoplasma genitalium and neisseria gonorrhoeae among the outpatients of reproductive medicine center in Chongqing, China: a retrospective study.
Article in BMC infectious diseases, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesThis study aims to assess the prevalence of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Mycoplasma genitalium (MG), and Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) among outpatients of reproductive medicine center in Chongqing, China.
methodsThis retrospective study included patients who attended the Center for Reproductive Medicine of Women and Children’s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University during the period from 2018 to 2022. Semen or cervical swab samples were collected from patients and subsequently analyzed for the presence of CT, MG, and NG pathogens using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).
resultsThis study included 111,222 patients (mean age: 33.28 ± 5.49 years, range: 19–76 years), including 53,103 males and 58,119 females. The prevalence of CT positivity was significantly lower in males than females (1.93% vs. 2.57%, p < 0.001), whereas MG positivity was higher in males (3.57% vs. 2.04%, p < 0.001). The prevalence of NG positivity was comparable between genders (0.12% vs. 0.11%, p = 0.612). Notably, the prevalence of CT decreased with age in both male and female patients, while the prevalence of MG and NG remained relatively stable across age groups. Among all the infected patients, 95.1% of male patients and 95.8% of female patients were infected with only one of the pathogens, while the predominant mixed infection is co-infection with CT and MG.
conclusionsIn Chongqing infertility patients, CT and MG infections exceeded NG, with single infections predominating. This high prevalence necessitates integrated sexually transmitted infection screening in infertility care.
