Article Synopsis
- Genital Mycoplasmas are linked to negative pregnancy outcomes and infertility, but more research is needed to understand their exact role.
- The study analyzed 228 endocervical samples from pregnant and non-pregnant women using end-point PCR to detect various Mycoplasma species.
- The findings showed that certain Mycoplasma species were associated with bacterial vaginosis, indicating a potential contribution to its development, though no clear link was found to infertility or adverse pregnancy outcomes.

- - In a study involving 628 pregnant women, the incidence of infection was found to be 10.5%, with a low vertical transmission rate of 1.5% among those treated.
- - Infants born to mothers with untreated infections had a much higher risk of perinatal pneumonia, highlighting the importance of effective screening during pregnancy.

Objective: To compare the effectiveness of two combinations of three oral antimicrobial drugs in the treatment of mixed cervical-vaginal infections, included those caused by Mycoplasma and Chlamydia trachomatis.
Background: Chlamydia trachomatis infection is considered a public health problem due to its high prevalence, and because is asymptomatic in 70% of women and provokes reproductive sequelae when it is not detected and treated timely.
Objective: To search for C. trachomatis in endometrium and peritoneal fluid of infertile women without detection of this pathogen in cervical secretions.
Objective: To identify the frequency and type of microorganisms isolated from infected surgical wounds at the Instituto Nacional de Perinatología, and identify the association among the microorganisms isolated and the outcome of the infected patients.
Methodology: Observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study carried out between January 1999 and January 2001. Postoperative patients of an obstetric or gynecologic procedure, complicated with a surgical wound infection and with a culture and smear of the wound, were included.
