 | Infections caused by Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) and Neisseria gonorrhoeae (GC) are the most commonly reported bacterial sexually transmitted infections in the U.S. No studies have been conducted to determine the prevalence of these two infections in women federal prisoners. Information about the prevalence of and risk factors for the infections may assist the Federal Bureau of Prisons to implement a rational screening approach for CT and GC in female inmates. ... |

 | Endocervical swabs collected in triplicate from 209 symptomatic and asymptomatic women in a high prevalence adolescent clinic (99) and in an intermediate prevalence University Health Service (110) were cultured simultaneously for isolation of Chlamydia trachomatis. Chlamydia was isolated from 33 patients, with 24 positive for all three specimens and nine with various patterns of positive and negative specimens. Discrepancy analysis consisting of multiple passes and reculture of discrepant negative specimens ... |

 | Trachoma and inclusion conjunctivitis strains (TRIC strains) isolated on Taiwan and those received from laboratories throughout the world were classified in the mouse toxicity prevention test into three major groups from ocular trachoma and three other major groups made up almost entirely on non-ocular trachoma TRIC strains (e.g., genital, inclusion conjunctivitis). Vaccine studies in monkeys confirmed that protection with oil adjuvant preparations of purified vaccines can be obtained with the ... |

|
 | Infection with Chlamydia trachomatis is the most common bacterial sexually transmitted disease worldwide, and leads to pathological sequelae including pelvic inflammatory disease and infertility. The continued increase in incidence rates of genital chlamydial infection over the last decade underscores a need for comprehensive understanding of the infection kinetics, host immune response, and disease pathogenesis. A mouse model of genital Chlamydia muridarum infection is generally employed in such studies, with most ... |
