Chlamydia screening for all females in juvenile detention amenities is suggested at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (Torrone et al., 2015). Recognizing common factors of chlamydia could allow only specific screenings which would then reduce costs while still revealing many infections (Torrone et al. 2015). The study used various factors to classify features affiliated with chlamydia among females aged 12 to 18 years old in a juvenile detention facility in San Diego during January 2009 to June 2010 (Torrone et atl. 2015). Various screening standards were grounded on groupings of factors affiliated with infection and configured sensitivity and percentage screened for each standard.

This could cause some ethical issues because of the lack of information (Torrone et al., 2015). Without a subsequent amount of information the validity of the results could be questioned or not as strong. The authors state that at the time of consumption for the females information was incomplete and that many variables had to be left out of the study (Torrone et al., 2015). It is crucial when performing a study with such a sensitive topic as Chlamydia that you have all facts, data, and variables present and accurate to ensure that your results are valid and reliable. The authors also state that about 6% of intakes were not screened which could alter the results of the study(Torrone et al., 2015). The authors discuss that some of the missing information could have a negative effect on the results if it was not missing from natural purposes (Torrone et al., 2015). At least 10% of data charts were missing, although that is a small amount, that 10% could have slightly changed the results and demographics of the study (Torrone et al., 2015). This study does not represent the information on chlamydia for all juvenile facilities but just for this specific facility in San Diego. Lastly, the variable concerning the number of sex partner that each female had did not specifically address a time period (Torrone et al., 2015). This is a significant ethical issue because it could greatly impact the results of when and how rapidly chlamydia infected the
