In a community of Tanzania where trachoma is endemic, we cultured conjunctival swabs from all residents who had active trachoma and were PCR positive for ocular Chlamydia trachomatis, both before (43 isolates) and 2 months after (9 isolates) mass antibiotic treatment. No clinically or programmatically significant increase in azithromycin or tetracycline resistance was observed.
在坦桑尼亚沙眼流行的一个社区,我们对所有患有活动性沙眼且眼部沙眼衣原体PCR检测呈阳性的居民的结膜拭子进行培养,分别在大规模抗生素治疗前(43株分离株)和治疗后2个月(9株分离株)进行。未观察到阿奇霉素或四环素耐药性在临床或项目方面有显著增加。
