| prevalence of chlamydia trachomatis and neisseria gonorrhoeae and repeat infection among pregnant urban adolescents. | negative maternal and fetal consequences associated with chlamydia trachomatis and neisseria gonorrhoeae during pregnancy make diagnosis essential. the centers for disease control and prevention recommend routine screening for sexually transmitted infections at the first prenatal visit, and third trimester repeat screening, specifically for c. trachomatis, is recommended for women under age 25 or at increased infection risk. the effect of repeat screening on diagnosis during pregnancy is not wel ... | 2011 | 20938375 |
| the roles of social domains, behavioral risk, health care resources, and chlamydia in spatial clusters of us cervical cancer mortality: not all the clusters are the same. | while high-risk geographic clusters of cervical cancer mortality have previously been assessed, factors associated with this geographic patterning have not been well studied. once these factors are identified, etiologic hypotheses and targeted population-based interventions may be developed and lead to a reduction in geographic disparities in cervical cancer mortality. | 2010 | 20532608 |

| time to treatment for women with chlamydial or gonococcal infections: a comparative evaluation of sexually transmitted disease clinics in 3 us cities. | many women with positive screening tests for chlamydia or gonorrhea are not promptly treated and are at risk for complications and further disease transmission. improved methods for notifying infected patients might increase timely treatment in this population. | 2005 | 15729159 |
| indirect estimation of chlamydia screening coverage using public health surveillance data. | although routine screening of all sexually active adolescent females for chlamydia trachomatis infection is recommended at least annually in the united states, no national or state-specific population-based estimates of chlamydia screening coverage are known to exist. conclusions regarding screening coverage have often been based on surveys of health care provider or facility screening practices, but such surveys do not consider persons who do not seek care at these facilities or who seek care a ... | 2004 | 15229122 |
| feasibility and short-term impact of linked education and urine screening interventions for chlamydia and gonorrhea in male army recruits. | the objective of this study was to assess the feasibility of an intervention for sexually transmitted diseases (stds) and a screening program for chlamydia trachomatis and neisseria gonorrhoeae infections in male army recruits. | 2004 | 15215702 |
| preference among female army recruits for use of self-administrated vaginal swabs or urine to screen for chlamydia trachomatis genital infections. | use of self-administered vaginal swabs (sas) for the detection of chlamydia trachomatis by nucleic acid amplification tests simplifies specimen collection and transport, especially for women in nonclinical settings. | 2003 | 14520176 |
| sustained high prevalence of chlamydia trachomatis infections in female army recruits. | chlamydia trachomatis infections are prevalent among young sexually active females, have serious sequelae, and are mostly asymptomatic. screening and treatment of infected females has been demonstrated to prevent sequelae such as pelvic inflammatory disease. | 2003 | 12838080 |
