OBJECTIVES: To determine risk factors for chlamydial or gonococcal urethral infection among adult male detainees at Cook County Jail. To develop a screening algorithm with high sensitivity and specificity for detection of urethral infection.
STUDY DESIGN: We interviewed adult male detainees and tested them for chlamydial or gonococcal urethral infection during jail intake from June 24 through July 29, 2004. We supplemented the cross-sectional survey with a nested case-control study.
RESULTS: We screened 5,634 (93%) of 6,028 detainees; 348 (6.2%) had chlamydial or gonococcal urethral infection. Interviews were completed and collected for 35%. By multivariable analysis, infected detainees were more likely to be <31 years of age, have more than 6 sex partners in the previous 12 months, or have symptoms. Age less than 31 years or symptoms would have identified 73% of infected detainees while screening only 50%.
CONCLUSIONS: A simple algorithm that included age and symptoms best identified detainees at increased risk for chlamydial or gonococcal urethral infection.
