genital chlamydia trachomatis infection in women.	specimens for isolation of neisseria gonorrhoeae, chlamydia trachomatis, candida albicans, and trichomonas vaginalis were collected from 585 women attending clinics for venereal diseases. the isolation rates in women attending clinics for venereal diseases. the isolation rates in women with and without genitourinary symptoms, the course of untreated chlamydial infection, the occurrence of chlamydial urethritis, and the response to antibiotic treatment were investigated. a 30% incidence of chlamy ...	1980	6777719
urine culture for the detection of trichomonas vaginalis in men.	urine samples were collected from 248 men, 21 of whom were known contacts of women infected with trichomonas vaginalis. this organism was cultured from only three of the 21 specimens from patients in the contact group. the cultural technique was shown to be capable of reliably detecting small numbers of organisms under practical conditions; it appears, therefore, that most male contacts shed relatively few trichomonads and that the infective dose for women must be correspondingly small.	1980	6966175
trichomoniasis. new ideas on an old disease.	trichomoniasis is probably the most widespread sexually transmitted disease of man. the causative organism, trichomonas vaginalis, can normally be found on microscopic examination of vaginal exudate, although serological diagnostic techniques have recently been described. the organism has now been recognized as a pathogen, and, although infection has been associated with cervical cancer, a causative link has not been established. despite both humoral and cellular immune responses, protective imm ...	1980	6969449
effect of listeria monocytogenes lipids on the immunity of mice against candida albicans, cryptococcus neoformans and trichomonas vaginalis.	the effect of listeria monocytogenes lipids (lm lipids) on immunity against candida albicans, cryptococcus neoformans and trichomonas vaginalis was studied in mice. the administration of lm lipids did not affect significantly the course of t. vaginalis infection. on the other hand, single lm lipids injection markedly decreased the mortality rate of mice with mycotic infections, and significantly accelerated the elimination of fungal cells from liver, spleen and blood circulation of animals. it i ...	1980	6778451
in vitro attraction of polymorphonuclear leucocytes by trichomonas vaginalis.	boyden chambers were used to investigate the attraction of polymorphonuclear leucocytes to t. vaginalis. chemotaxis to live organisms was demonstrated, and chemotaxis to t. vaginalis supernatant was shown to be concentration dependent. both chemokinesis and true chemotaxis characterized the response to supernatants. there was no chemotaxis to the supernatant after it had been heated to 60 c for 1 hr, or to the supernatant from formalin-fixed t. vaginalis. the chemotactic factor in the supernatan ...	1980	7012294
