Presentation of clinically suspected persistent chlamydial infection: a case series

International Journal of STD & AIDS, 2013
In vivo antimicrobial resistance has yet to be documented in Chlamydia trachomatis; however, there have been anecdotal reports of persistent infection. The purpose of this case series was to describe a group of patients who have persistent chlamydia infection despite adequate treatment and where re-infection was considered unlikely.

Electron microscopic evidence of persistent chlamydial infection following treatment

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, 2001
Abstract Chlamydia trachomatis infections of the female and male genital tracts are often asymptomatic and, thus, tend to become persistent. In the persistent state the typical Chlamydia life cycle is arrested and standard antibiotic regimens do not always eradicate this infection. We sought to relate treatment failures in men and women with persistent

Augmented oxidative stress in infertile women with persistent chlamydial infection

Reproductive Biology, 2017
There is established association between oxidative stress, infections of genital tract and fertility. Genital tract infections may provoke increased production of free radicals and generate oxidative stress that can be involved in pathophysiology of a number of reproductive diseases and complications during pregnancy.

A case of renal involvement in persistent immune activation caused by chlamydial salpingitis

Virchows Archiv, 2001
A 24-year-old woman presented with renal insufficiency, macrohematuria, and mild urinary protein. Polyclonal hypergamma-globulinemia, thrombocytosis, increased concentration of serum, and urinary interleukin (IL)-6 all indicated persistent immune activation caused by a Chlamydia trachomatis infection of the fallopian tube.

Persistent Superficial Punctate Keratitis After Resolution of Chlamydial Follicular Conjunctivitis

Cornea, 1992
Two cases of follicular conjunctivitis due to Chlamydia trachomatis followed by punctate epithelial keratitis are described. Both cases were initially treated with either oral tetracycline or doxycycline with resolution of the follicles. These two patients subsequently had recurrent, bilateral grayish lesions at various levels in the corneal epithelium

Chlamydia trachomatis Growth Inhibition by IFNγ: Implications for Persistent Chlamydial Infections

2021
The immune response to chlamydial infections and the role it plays in resistance to reinfection, resolution of ongoing infection, and development of persistent chlamydial infection is poorly understood. Inhibition of chlamydial growth as a result of deprivation of necessary metabolites, such as certain amino acids, has been described previously and ...

Effect of Expedited Treatment of Sex Partners on Recurrent or Persistent Gonorrhea or Chlamydial Infection

New England Journal of Medicine, 2005
Many sex partners of persons with gonorrhea or chlamydial infections are not treated, which leads to frequent reinfections and further transmission.We randomly assigned women and heterosexual men with gonorrhea or chlamydial infection to have their partners receive expedited treatment or standard referral. Patients in the expedited-treatment group were

Subjects recovering from human ocular chlamydial infection have enhanced lymphoproliferative responses to chlamydial antigens compared with those of persistently diseased controls

Infection and Immunity, 1995
Cell-mediated immune responses to chlamydial and common recall antigens were measured in 26 subjects whose clinical signs of trachoma persisted over 6 months of follow-up and in 21 subjects whose clinical signs resolved spontaneously over the same period.

Persisting inapparent chlamydial infection in a trachoma endemic community in The Gambia.

Scandinavian journal of infectious diseases. Supplementum, 1991
In a Gambian village with endemic trachoma, C. trachomatis was isolated from some 50% of children with active trachoma but from only 1% of adults with scarring sequelae. One possibility is that individuals with progressive scarring disease have clinically inapparent, non-productive infection which cannot be detected by cell culture.
