Chlamydial InfectionsWilliam Robert Bowie The proceedings of the 6th International Symposium on Chlamydial Infections, published by Cambridge University Press in 1986, became an essential source of reference for researchers and clinicians interested in infections caused by this important group of organisms. This, the latest volume arising from the 7th Symposium, follows the successful pattern of its predecessor to provide a wide-ranging and contemporary account of Chlamydial research. Chlamydia continues to be a major cause of sexually transmitted disease and infertility in man, with growing awareness that there may be an important co-factor in the spread of AIDS. Ocular chlamydia infection is the world's prime cause of preventable blindness. This has prompted major research into new methods of diagnosing and preventing chlamydial disease. At the same time a new species of Chlamydia has been designated, Chlamydia pneumoniae, whose clinical impact is under detailed investigation. |
