Clinical algorithms for the screening of women for gonococcal and chlamydial infection: evaluation of pregnant women and prostitutes in Zaire Institute of Tropical Medicine
A substantial proportion of women with gonococcal and/or chlamydial infection are asymptomatic. Thus active case detection is problematical, particularly in developing countries, where facilities and materials for laboratory testing are limited. We assessed the diagnostic validity of the hierarchical clinical algorithms recommended by the World Health Organization as well as that of a nonhierarchical scoring system, using data for 1,160 pregnant ...

Intra-cavitary uterine pathology in women with abnormal uterine bleeding: a prospective study of 1220 women KU Leuven
Our primary aim was to assess how patients' characteristics, bleeding pattern, sonographic endometrial thickness (ET) and additional features at unenhanced ultrasound examination (UTVS) and at fluid instillation sonography (FIS) contribute to the diagnosis of intracavitary uterine pathology in women presenting with abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). We further aimed to report the prevalence of pathology in women presenting with AUB.

Objective: This study aimed to examine differences in disability, cognitive deficits, and central sensitization between women with traumatic and idiopathic (nontraumatic) chronic neck pain and women who were healthy. In addition, ...
