Epidemiology of sexually transmitted chlamydia trachomatis infections
This paper provides a comprehensive review of the literature on the epidemiology of sexually transmitted chlamydial infections. Its major sections focus on the following substantive areas: microbiology, serologic classification, infections of men (urethritis, epididymitis, prostatitis), infections of women (endocervicitis, urethritis, salpingitis, endometritis, infertility, ectopic pregnancy), effect of genital chlamydial infections on pregnancy, other diseases (Reiter's syndrome, cervical atypia, gastrointestinal infection, lymphogranuloma venereum), and prevention and control programs. It is conceded that wide gaps remain in our understanding of the epidemiology of these organisms.
