Mathematical model for transmission of Chlamydia due to sexual activity and unhygienic environment

open access: yesExploration of Medicine, 2022
Aim: Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) need to be studied systematically to better understand their global spread. Transmission of Chlamydia trachomatis is a severe public health issue, with roughly 90 million new cases per year.

MultNAT HPV16/18 Assay: A Simple, Rapid, and Low‐Cost Polymerase Chain Reaction Method for the Detection of HPV16 and HPV18 Suitable for Point‐of‐Care Testing

open access: yesCancer Nexus, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Persistent high‐risk HPV infection can lead to the development of precancerous lesions, potentially progressing to invasive cancer. HPV status serves not only as a prognostic marker for squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) like oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas (OPSCC) but also significantly influences clinical management and treatment ...

Burden and Correlates of Multiple Chronic Infections and Their Associations With Cancer Incidence in Chinese Adults: A Large Case‐Cohort Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
While several oncogenic pathogens cause site‐specific cancers, uncertainties remain about many other chronic infections and combined pathogen effects, especially in non‐Western populations. Using a large case–cohort study nested within the China Kadoorie Biobank, the authors found that co‐infection was common, with a mean of 10 pathogens per individual.

Community risk factors for ocular Chlamydia infection in Niger: pre-treatment results from a cluster-randomized trachoma trial. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: Trachoma control programs utilize mass azithromycin distributions to treat ocular Chlamydia trachomatis as part of an effort to eliminate this disease world-wide. But it remains unclear what the community-level risk factors are for infection.

Chlamydia trachomatis and Chlamydia muridarum spectinomycin resistant vectors and a transcriptional fluorescent reporter to monitor conversion from replicative to infectious bacteria.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Chlamydia trachomatis infections are the leading cause of sexually transmitted infections of bacterial origin. Lower genital tract infections are often asymptomatic, and therefore left untreated, leading to ascending infections that have long-term ...
