| antimicrobial resistance of neisseria gonorrhoea in bangkok: is single-drug treatment passé. | 201 gonococcal isolates obtained from patients attending clinics in bangkok were tested for in-vitro antimicrobial susceptibility. 42% of these isolates were penicillinase-producing neisseria gonorrhoeae (ppng); of the 116 isolates of non-ppng 53% had a penicillin minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) greater than or equal to 1 microgram/ml and the remainder had mic greater than or equal to 0.06 microgram penicillin/ml. similarly high in-vitro resistance was found for six of eight other antimic ... | 1982 | 6129464 |
| the contraceptive sponge's protection against chlamydia trachomatis and neisseria gonorrhoeae. | to investigate the effect of the contraceptive sponge on the incidence of sexually transmitted diseases, we conducted a clinical trial among a high-risk population of women in bangkok, thailand. two hundred fifty-five women were randomly assigned either to use the sponge or not and were evaluated weekly for gonorrhea and chlamydial infection. after adjustment by logistic regression for potentially confounding factors, women using the sponge were less likely to have contracted chlamydial infectio ... | 1987 | 2821636 |
| antibiotic susceptibility survey of neisseria gonorrhoeae in thailand. | the antibiotic susceptibilities of neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates obtained from patients attending sexually transmitted disease clinics in cholburi and bangkok, thailand, were determined by agar dilution. some 28.2% of isolates produced beta-lactamase. a total of 97.9% of beta-lactamase-positive and 51% of beta-lactamase-negative isolates tested were resistant to penicillin (mics, greater than or equal to 2 micrograms/ml), 70% of isolates tested were resistant to tetracycline (mics, greater than ... | 1992 | 1416851 |
| chlamydial and gonococcal cervicitis in hiv-seropositive and hiv-seronegative pregnant women in bangkok: prevalence, risk factors, and relation to perinatal hiv transmission. | to determine the prevalence and risk factors associated with cervicitis caused by chlamydia trachomatis and neisseria gonorrhoeae in human immunodeficiency virus (hiv) type 1-seropositive and hiv-seronegative pregnant women in bangkok, and the relation to perinatal hiv transmission. | 1997 | 9339966 |

| treatment of acute gonococcal infections in bangkok with a dose range of the new cephalosporin, cefodizime. | in this randomized dose range study conducted in bangkok, 326 patients with presumed acute uncomplicated gonorrhoea were treated with a single intramuscular dose of either 0.25 g, 0.5 g, or 1.0 g of a new aminothiazole cephalosporin, cefodizime. one hundred and eighty men and 110 women were evaluable for efficacy. pathogens were eliminated in all but 4 of these patients resulting in a cure rate of 99%, irrespective of dose, sex, or multiplicity of infected sites. a high percentage of the 290 str ... | 1992 | 1571381 |
| molecular analyses of tem genes and their corresponding penicillinase-producing neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates in bangkok, thailand. | neisseria gonorrhoeae is a major public health problem globally, especially because the bacterium has developed resistance to most antimicrobials introduced for first-line treatment of gonorrhea. in the present study, 96 n. gonorrhoeae isolates with high-level resistance to penicillin from 121 clinical isolates in thailand were examined to investigate changes related to their plasmid-mediated penicillin resistance and their molecular epidemiological relationships. a β-lactamase (tem) gene varian ... | 2011 | 22143532 |
| multiclonal increase in ciprofloxacin-resistant neisseria gonorrhoeae, thailand, 1998-1999. | isolates exhibiting clinically significant resistance to fluoroquinolones have been isolated most frequently in asian and western pacific countries, including thailand. in bangkok, thailand, ciprofloxacin has been used to treat gonorrhea since 1987. | 2002 | 12438903 |
| rapid assessment of sexually transmitted diseases in a sentinel population in thailand: prevalence of chlamydial infection, gonorrhoea, and syphilis among pregnant women--1996. | to determine the prevalence of sexually transmitted diseases (stds) among pregnant women in thailand, where case reporting suggests a marked decrease in stds following a campaign promoting condom use during commercial sex. | 1998 | 9849554 |
| antimicrobial susceptibilities of strains of neisseria gonorrhoeae in bangkok, thailand: 1994-1995. | failure of uncomplicated gonococcal infections acquired in the far east to respond to doses of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin recommended by the centers for disease control and prevention have been identified in australia, the united kingdom, and the united states. in the republic of the philippines, 54.3% of strains exhibited decreased susceptibility to fluoroquinolones; 12% of strains were resistant to ciprofloxacin. this study was undertaken to compare the antimicrobial susceptibilities of gonoc ... | 1997 | 9132980 |
