In women, Chlamydia trachomatis infection often occurs in the urethra or cervix, with up to 70% of infections associated with few or no symptoms. Inadequate treatment may lead to infection of the upper genital tract and subsequent pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in 10 to 40% of patients. PID
OBJECTIVE
The purposes of this study were to (1) quantify the frequency of underrecognized Neisseria gonorrhoeae (GC) and Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) infections in pregnant women tested in the emergency department (ED), (2) describe the characteristics of those not treated during the initial visit,
Twenty women with Chlamydia trachomatis genitourinary infection were treated with oral enoxacin 800 mg/day in two divided doses for 12 days starting on day 1 of the menstrual cycle. A physical examination was performed before the start and 28-30 days after the end of the treatment. At the final
The results of two therapeutic trials in female patients with uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhoea (A) and in male patients with uncomplicated urethral gonorrhoea (B) treated with either 200 mg and 400 mg enoxacin orally, of one therapeutic trial in male patients with uncomplicated urogenital
BACKGROUND
Recent studies have raised concern about efficacy of azithromycin for Chlamydia trachomatis infection. Research investigating new antibiotic regimens for chlamydia has been sparse, especially regimens that may reduce adherence difficulties with the recommended twice-daily doxycycline
A retrospective study was undertaken in order to compare the efficacy and safety of azithromycin and doxycycline in the treatment of pneumonias caused by Chlamydia spp. Patients with radiologically confirmed pneumonia and positive complement fixation test for chlamydial infection who were
Genital Chlamydia trachomatis (C.trachomatis) infection may lead to pregnancy complications such as miscarriage, preterm labour, low birthweight, preterm rupture of membranes, increased perinatal mortality, postpartum endometritis, chlamydial conjunctivitis and C.trachomatis pneumonia.This review
The macrolide antibiotic rosaramicin inhibits in vitro growth of Chlamydia trachomatis. Rosaramicin (1 g daily given to 18 patients for seven days) and erythromycin stearate (2 g daily given to 19 patients for seven days) were compared in the treatment of chlamydial cervicitis. Cultures of cervical
OBJECTIVE
To compare azithromycin and erythromycin in regard to side effects, intolerance, and cure rate in a pregnant population with chlamydial cervicitis.
METHODS
Thirty women were randomized to receive either erythromycin, 500 mg orally four times a day for 7 days, or azithromycin, 1 g orally as
A randomised, double-blind study of adults with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) resulted in clinical cure rates of 90.0% for telithromycin and 94.2% for trovafloxacin. Bacteriological eradication rates were also comparable for both treatments. All high-risk patients (i.e. > or = 65 years old
Community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) remains a common and serious illness with approximately 2-4 million cases reported annually. Management of CAP is therapeutically challenging due to the increasing prevalence of penicillin- and macrolide-resistant pneumococci and beta-lactamase producing
A 14-year-old female was seen for acute abdominal, back, and flank pain, accompanied with dysuria, increased frequency of urination, nausea, and decreased appetite. After an initial diagnosis of pyelonephritis, a presumptive diagnosis of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) was made. The cervical
OBJECTIVE
The August 1997 Directive of the Direction of General Health in France extended indications for antiretroviral treatment to risk of HIV exposure by sexual intercourse or syringe sharing. In November 1997, in collaboration with the Hauts-de-Seine MedicoJudiciary center, the Infectious
BACKGROUND
Progressive resistance to antimicrobial agents has reduced options for gonorrhea therapy worldwide. Solithromycin (CEM-101) is a novel oral fluoroketolide antimicrobial with substantial in vitro activity against Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
METHODS
We conducted a phase 2 trial of 2 oral doses
Three familial cases of psittacosis are reported. The first case was a 46-year-old woman, the second case, her 18-year-old daughter. Both of them often visited the house of the third case, a 49-year-old women, who was the elder sister of case 1 and who took care of the chick of a budgerigar which
