Systematic review and meta-analysis of the association between Mycoplasma genitalium and Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)

Differences in opinion concerning the contribution of M. genitalium to pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) has resulted in inconsistencies across global testing and treatment guidelines. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the association between M. genitalium and PID and M. genitalium positivity within PID cases to provide a contemporary evidence base to inform clinical practice (PROSPERO registration: CRD42022382156).
