Serological studies in Chlamydia trachomatis associated pneumonia of infants
Abstract:
Serological results provided evidence for the clinical diagnosis of chlamydial pneumonia in 8 out of 51 cases. Elevated chlamydia-specific IgM titres (128-2048) and IgG titres (128-2048) were recorded in 5 and 8 infants, respectively. High titres of chlamydial antibodies (512-8192) in the sera of mothers of seropositive children proved genital Chlamydia trachomatis infection.
