In 1996 the Center for Disease Control reported that adolescents account for the largest proportion of Chlamydia cases. One method discussed by experts to control Chlamydia rates is education and condom distribution in high schools. This report analyzes a stochastic process and deterministic models to determine the effectiveness of condom distribution with education, in controlling the transmis...
Chlamydia species are susceptible in vitro to certain antibiotics, and various tetracyclines, macrolides, and fluoroquinolones are used for the treatment of Chlamydia trachomatis infections. Less is known about the in vitro susceptibility and chemical response to infection with Chlamydia pneumoniae. Results of in vitro studies from the literature and from my laboratory employing a tissue cultur...
BACKGROUND Infection with genital Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) is the most common notifiable sexually transmitted infection (STI) in Sweden. A mutated Chlamydia, nvCT, has contributed to the increase. The occurrence of repeat infections is not investigated in Sweden. The current paper presents the study protocol for the first Swedish clinical investigation of repeat Chlamydial infection. The conc...
BACKGROUND The success of chlamydia screening programmes relies on their ability to effectively target those with greatest need. Young people from disadvantaged backgrounds may be at greater need for chlamydia screening, but existing evidence on the variation of prevalence with social position is inconclusive. We carried out a systematic review to examine variation in chlamydia prevalence in po...
BACKGROUND Chlamydia infection is a significant public health issue for young people; however, testing rates in Australian general practice are low. Practice nurses (PNs) could have an important role in contributing to increasing chlamydia testing rates. The Australian Chlamydia Control Effectiveness Pilot (ACCEPt), a large cluster randomised control trial of annual testing for 16 to 29 year ol...
OBJECTIVES Female anorectal Chlamydia trachomatis (chlamydia) infections are common irrespective of recent anal sex. We explored the role of anorectal infections in chlamydia transmission and estimated the impact of interventions aimed at improved detection and treatment of anorectal infections. METHODS We developed a pair compartmental model of heterosexuals aged 15-29 years attending STI cl...
some adipocytokines are cardioprotective or pro-inflammatory for cardiovascular system. chronic infection with chlamydia pneumoniae and helicobacter pylori has been also considered as novel risk factors for atherosclerosis. the main aim of the current population-based study is to investigate the potential link between circulating adipocytokines and chlamydia pneumoniae or helicobacter pylori ig...
BACKGROUND Chlamydia infections are common in both men and women, are often asymptomatic and can cause serious complications. Repeat testing in high-risk groups is therefore indicated. In the Netherlands, guidelines on repeat chlamydia testing differ between testing facilities, and knowledge on repeat testing behaviour is limited. Here, we analyse the current repeat testing behaviour of heteros...
OBJECTIVES Local authorities (LAs) in England commission chlamydia screening as part of the National Chlamydia Screening Programme. It is recommended that LAs achieve a chlamydia diagnosis rate of ≥2300 cases per 100 000 population aged 15-24. We describe national patterns in attainment of the chlamydia diagnosis rate recommendation and possible implications of using it to measure LA-level perf...
