In a prospective open study we investigated Chlamydia pneumoniae infections in 36 consecutively admitted patients: 26 males, mean age 53.4 yr, range 36-70 yr, 10 females mean age 57.7 yr, range 47-70 yr, suffering myocardial infarction (24 acute, 2 previous) or angina pectoris (10). Antibody serum levels were measured by the immunefluorescent method and they were as follows: negative 5, low 12, medium/high 11, chronic infection 5, recent infection 3. The 3 cases considered as recent infections are described in detail.
