Evolutionary Dynamics in the Genome of Ocular Chlamydia trachomatis Strains from Northern Tanzania, pre- and post- Mass Drug Administration

2024-05-30

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> Trachoma, caused by <italic>Chlamydia trachomatis</italic> (Ct), remains a leading cause of preventable infection induced blindness worldwide. We conducted a four-year longitudinal study in three trachoma-endemic villages in Northern Tanzania, tracking infection dynamics and factors influencing trachomatous scarring progression and persistence pre- and post-Mass Drug Administration...
