Genital Immune Correlates of Seroprevalent and Seroincident Herpes Simplex Type 2 Infection Among Women Who Sell Sex in Nairobi, Kenya

American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, Volume 95, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Problem Most Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV‐2) infection is asymptomatic but increases the risk of HIV acquisition, possibly due to alterations in genital immunology. We examine associations of HSV‐2 prevalence and incidence with epithelial barrier disruption. Method of Study The study was nested within the longitudinal Maisha Fiti cohort of

Etiology of bacterial vaginosis and polymicrobial biofilm formation [PDF]

, 2017
Microorganisms in nature rarely exist in a planktonic form, but in the form of biofilms. Biofilms have been identified as the cause of many chronic and persistent infections and have been implicated in the etiology of bacterial vaginosis (BV).
