The 2017 International Forum on Gonococcal Infections and Resistance (2017 IFGIR) was held at Shenzhen, China from September 17, 2017, to September 19, 2017. The key objectives of the conference were to review and analyze the epidemiological profiles of gonococcal infections and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) at global, regional, and national levels; to share and discuss findings from ongoing and completed research studies; and to identify research needs to respond to the spread of gonococcal infections and AMR. The following contents were presented at the conference: global estimates of infections with Neisseria gonorrhoeae; global, regional and country status of gonococcal AMR; molecular techniques for predicting gonococcal AMR and the use of these technologies to enhance gonococcal AMR surveillance and clinical management; and updates on therapeutic approaches to gonococcal AMR.
2017 年淋球菌感染与耐药国际论坛(2017 IFGIR)于 2017 年 9 月 17 日至 19 日在中国深圳举行。会议的主要目标是审查和分析全球、区域和国家各级淋球菌感染和抗菌素耐药性(AMR)的流行病学特征;分享和讨论正在进行和已完成的研究结果;并确定研究需求,以应对淋球菌感染和 AMR 的传播。会议介绍了以下内容:淋病奈瑟菌感染的全球估计数;全球、区域和国家淋病 AMR 状况;预测淋球菌 AMR 的分子技术以及这些技术在增强淋球菌 AMR 监测和临床管理中的应用;以及治疗淋球菌 AMR 的最新方法。
