Abstract

The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic value of an ELISA method for the detection of N. gonorrhoeae antigen in ürogenital specimens (Gonozyme) with culture and direct Gram stain results for the diagnosis of gonorrhea. In 105 male patients ELISA was positive in 19 patients: When compared with culture results, ELISA and Gram stain showed sensitivity of 100.0% and 88.8%, specificity of 98.8%, positive predictive value (PPV) of 94.8% and 94.1%, negative predictive value (NPV) of 100% and 97.8%, efficiency of 99% and 97.1%, respectively. Statistical analysis showed that there was no difference between the methods (p > 0.05).

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı; gonore tanısı için ürogenital örneklerde Neisseria gonorrhoeae antijeni saptayan ELISA yönteminin (Gonozyme) tanısal değerleri, kültür ve Gram boyama sonuçları ile karşılaştırmak idi. Çalışmada 105 erkek hastaya ait üretral akıntı örneği incelendi. Hastaların 19'unda (%18) N. gonorrhoeae antijeni saptandı. Kültür sonuçları ile karşılaştırıldığında; ELISA ve mikroskobi yöntemlerinin tanısal değerleri sırasıyla; duyarlılık %100 ve %88.8, özgüllük %98.8, pozitiflik tahmin değeri (PPV) %94.8 ve %94.1, negatiflik tahmin değeri (NPV) %100 ve %97.8, güvenilirlik %99 ve %97.1 olarak saptandı. Sonuçların istatistiksel analizinde yöntemler arasındaki fark anlamlı bulunmadı (p>0.05).
