Gonococcal infection of infants and children, on the other hand, at once attracts attention. Hence the reason why the incdence of vulvovaginitis infantum appears to be comparatively high. Nelson (1932) found the incidence of gonor...

The widespread use of antibiotics and increased availability of antimycotic agents, both prescribed and over-the-counter, predisposes both to a change in the epidemiologic patterns and the possible development of secondary resistance among previously susceptible yeast. This study was conducted ...
