abstract

  • We assessed the correlation between ligase chain reaction (LCR) on first void urine (FVU) and cultures of urethral and cervical swabs to detect chlamydia during three post-treatment follow up visits for 10 men and 19 women with genital chlamydial infections who had been treated with azithromycin or doxcycline.
