Positivity rates at community clinics and GU medicine were 0\/382 (0%) and 3\/358 (0.8%, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0\u20131.7%), respectively. Positivity was significantly higher, 29\/269 (10.8%, 95% CI 7.1\u201314.5%), odds ratio (OR) 14.3 (4.11 &lt; OR &lt; 59.55), in those tested at the prison. A questionnaire survey of English GU medicine clinics and data from the UK Health Protection Agency (HPA) for England both demonstrated the large variation in case rates by region and testing methods employed. Higher rates were seen in women, in prison GU medicine services and in London GU medicine clinics. The ATV assay is now CE-marked (Conformit\u00e9 Europ\u00e9enne) and so a larger prospective study of its potential application is warranted. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1258\/ijsa.2011.011102","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,7,27]],"date-time":"2011-07-27T14:28:24Z","timestamp":1311776904000},"page":"471-473","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Finding cases of <i>Trichomonas vaginalis<\/i> infection in England"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"M","family":"Mahto","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"East Cheshire NHS Trust, Macclesfield District General Hospital, Macclesfield"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J","family":"Evans-Jones","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Chester"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"S","family":"Zia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"East Cheshire NHS Trust, Macclesfield District General Hospital, Macclesfield"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"T I","family":"Robinson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Hospital Aintree NHS Foundation Trust, Liverpool, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M M","family":"Rothburn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Hospital Aintree NHS Foundation Trust, Liverpool, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"H","family":"Mallinson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Hospital Aintree NHS Foundation Trust, Liverpool, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,8,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr-IJSA-11-102C1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00007435-199707000-00008"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-11-102C2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/511278"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-11-102C3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1258\/095646205774988019"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-11-102C4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/sti.2009.039362"},{"key":"bibr-IJSA-11-102C5","unstructured":"MaujeanA, \u00d2LoughlinP, LoweP,  Experience with introducing the Gen-Probe Aptima Trichomonas Vaginalis assay.
