The prevalence of chlamydial genital infection was studied in 177 prostitutes in Iran; 100 in Teheran and 77 in the port of Bandar Abbas. Chlamydia trachomatis was isolated in eight (6.9%) of 116 patients with valid cultures. Type-specific antibodies were found against C trachomatis serotypes D to K (genital serotypes) in 94.2% and against serotypes A to C (trachoma serotypes) in 2% of the prostitutes. Type-specific IgM at a titre of greater than or equal to 8, indicating current infection, was found in 29.2%, whereas type-specific IgG at a titre greater than or equal to 64, suggesting a current or recent infection, was present in 71.5%. The lower chlamydial isolation rate in these women may have been due to previous treatment with antichlamydial drugs and because of immune responses resulting from repeated reinfection with chlamydiae. The results indicate that in Iran prostitutes are commonly infected with C trachomatis and are probably a major reservoir of chlamydial genital infection.
在伊朗，对177名妓女进行了衣原体性生殖器感染患病率的研究，其中100名在德黑兰，77名在阿巴斯港。在116例有有效培养结果的患者中，8例（6.9%）分离出沙眼衣原体。94.2%的妓女体内发现了针对沙眼衣原体D至K血清型（生殖器血清型）的型特异性抗体，2%的妓女体内发现了针对A至C血清型（沙眼血清型）的型特异性抗体。29.2%的妓女体内发现滴度大于或等于8的型特异性IgM，表明存在当前感染，而71.5%的妓女体内存在滴度大于或等于64的型特异性IgG，提示存在当前或近期感染。这些女性衣原体分离率较低可能是由于先前使用抗衣原体药物治疗以及衣原体反复再感染引起的免疫反应。结果表明，在伊朗，妓女普遍感染沙眼衣原体，可能是衣原体性生殖器感染的主要储存宿主。
