| in vitro susceptibility of 30 strains of chlamydia trachomatis to rosamicin. | a total of 13 of 30 clinical isolates of chlamydia trachomatis were susceptible in vitro to 0.01 mug of rosamicin per ml. only two of these strains were susceptible to tetracycline or erythromycin at this level. the results suggest that rosamicin may be useful for the treatment of chlamydial urethritis. | 1978 | 708027 |

| role of chlamydia trachomatis in non-acute prostatitis. | the possible role of chlamydia trachomatis in non-acute prostatitis was investigated by cultural and serological techniques in a study of 53 adult males. c. trachomatis was isolated from the urethra of only one of the 53 patients and from none of the 28 specimens of prostatic fluid from the same patients. by means of a modified microimmunofluorescent test, serum chlamydial igg antibodies at a titre of 1/64 or greater, or igm antibodies at a titre of 1/8 or greater, or both were detected in six o ... | 1978 | 709348 |
| effect of cortisol on the growth of chlamydia trachomatis in mccoy cells. | the number of intracytoplasmic inclusions of chlamydia trachomatis produced in mccoy cell monolayer cultures infected with a constant inoculum of a recently isolated genital strain was compared in cultures of untreated replicating cells and in monolayers which had been incubated in the presence of cortisol at initial extracellular concentrations between 0.0001 and 100 microgram/ml. the effect of adding cortisol was dependent on its concentration, on the time of addition to the tissue culture med ... | 1978 | 711342 |
| prediction of efficacy of antimicrobial agents in treatment of infections due to chlamydia trachomatis. | although chlamydia trachomatis is readily eradicated by systemic therapy in patients with acute urethritis, systemic therapy is less satisfactory in treatment of chronic trachoma. the activities of antimicrobial agents against c. trachomatis in cell cultures when the antimicrobial agents are added 1 hr after the c. trachomatis (minimal inhibitory concentration [mic]) predicts efficacy of the drugs in the treatment of urethritis but does not necessarily predict efficacy in the treatment of chroni ... | 1978 | 712119 |

| examination of men with nongonococcal urethritis and their sexual partners for chlamydia trachomatis and ureaplasma urealyticum. | chlamydia trachomatis was recovered from 39 (52%) of 75 men who had nongonococcal urethritis and from 28 (37%) of their sexual partners. of the partners of men with chlamydia-positive nongonococcal urethritis, 64% excreted chlamydia, compared with 8% of the partners of men with chlamydia-negative nongonococcal urethritis. in contrast, an apparently sexual mode of transmission was not observed with ureaplasma urealyticum. rates of recovery of u. urealyticum from men with nongonococcal urethritis ... | 1978 | 725708 |

| experimental infection of the chimpanzee urethra and pharynx with chlamydia trachomatis. | an isolate of chlamydia trachomatis obtained from a man with nongonococcal urethritis was used to produce experimental urethral and pharyngeal infections in chimpanzees. after urethral inoculation of 8 x 10(1) inclusion-forming units (ifu), infections were established in three of three animals; urethral discharges developed in two. the infections persisted for five to nine weeks. larger inocular (7 x 10(2) and 1 x 10(5) ifu) produced pharyngeal infections in two animals. the third animal's phary ... | 1978 | 741332 |
| etiologies of postgonococcal urethritis in homosexual and heterosexual men: roles of chlamydia trachomatis and ureaplasma urealyticum. | before treatment for urethral gonorrhea, chlamydia trachomatis was isolated from 18% and ureaplasma urealyticum from 37% of 121 men. c. trachomatis was recovered from none of 18 homosexual men who had gonorrhea and from 22 of 95 heterosexual men who had gonorrhea (p less than 0.05). after treatment with a penicillin, postgonococcal urethritis occurred significantly more often in heterosexual than in homosexual men (p less than 0.002). postgonococcal urethritis developed in all men from whom c. t ... | 1978 | 741335 |
| treatment of chlamydia-positive and chlamydia-negative nonspecific and postgonococcal urethritis. | chlamydial and non-chlamydial nonspecific or postgonococcal urethritis in 132 men was treated with different regimens of chlortetracycline and doxycycline. chlortetracycline 250 mg four times daily for 12.5-18.5 days given to 70 men resulted in a clinical cure of urethritis in 80% of cases (56/70). there was no difference in the cure rate between chlamydia-positive (40) and chlamydia-negative (30) cases. in no instance was the treatment failure, i.e., re-appearance of urethritis, associated with ... | 1978 | 742827 |
| chlamydia trachomatis and pneumonia in infants: report of two cases. | in two cases of pneumonia associated with chlamydia trachomatis in infants the symptoms began in the second week of life and the illness was severest at 4 weeks of age. both infants were afebrile. one had a history of conjunctivitis. both presented with a characteristic staccato cough and tachypnea but little evidence of peripheral airway obstruction. chest roentgenograms showed interstitial and alveolar pulmonary infiltration in hyperexpanded lungs. the serum igm concentrations were markedly el ... | 1978 | 743659 |

| ophthalmia neonatorum due to chlamydia trachomatis: a family problem? | the most frequently seen type of infectious ophthalmia neonatorum, inclusion conjunctivitis, is caused by the organism chlamydia trachomatis. this agent is known to be transmitted sexually. until recently, the infections produced by c trachomatis were though to be relatively benign. recent evidence, however, suggests that the organism may produce urethritis and epididymitis in the male; cervicitis, cervical erosions, salpingitis, and puerperal infections in the female; and prematurity and pneumo ... | 1979 | 759548 |
| chlamydiae, cervicitis, and abnormal papanicolaou smears. | cervical abnormalities accompanied by papanicolaou class ii or class iii cytologic results are commonly encountered in gynecologic office practice. chlamydiae are a common cause of genital tract infection, with or without manifest symptoms or signs. an immunofluorescence method was used to determine the presence of antichlamydial antibodies in cervical secretions. eleven of 15 patients in whom such antibodies were found (73.3%) had papanicolaou class ii or class iii smears, in contrast to only 3 ... | 1979 | 760016 |
