Abstract

Swabs were taken for isolation of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae from 112 infants with ophthalmia neonatorum attending a hospital in The Gambia. C. trachomatis was isolated from 37 (33%) and N. gonorrhoeae from 28 (25%), with both organisms being present in three cases (3%). A prospective study of 335 neonates was also undertaken in a Gambian town. Fifty-five infants (16%) showed clinical evidence of ophthalmia neonatorum. C. trachomatis was isolated from nine of these (16%) and N. gonorrhoeae from seven (13%).

摘要

从冈比亚一家医院就诊的112例患有新生儿眼炎的婴儿中采集拭子，以分离沙眼衣原体和淋病奈瑟菌。分离出沙眼衣原体的有37例（33%），分离出淋病奈瑟菌的有28例（25%），两种病原体均存在的有3例（3%）。在冈比亚的一个城镇还对335例新生儿进行了一项前瞻性研究。55例婴儿（16%）有新生儿眼炎的临床证据。其中9例（16%）分离出沙眼衣原体，7例（13%）分离出淋病奈瑟菌。
