Family chlamydiosis in upper respiratory tract
Abstract
The paper represents the results of studying 44 households with family members having upper respiratory tract diseases, associated with Chlamydia infection. Control group included 43 households with ENT family members, who didn’t show Chlamydia. Diagnostics was provided by using the complex of laboratory methods (direct immune fluorescent and immune enzyme analysis, polymerase-chain reaction). The presence of one patient with respiratory chlamydiosis in a household results in infecting other family-members with Chlamydia.
