Evaluating the Impact of a Dutch Sexual Health Intervention for Adolescents: Think-Aloud and Semistructured Interview Study

Evaluating the Impact of a Dutch Sexual Health Intervention for Adolescents: Think-Aloud and Semistructured Interview Study

Based on our theoretical analysis, which highlighted the emphasis on testing on the chlamydia page, we assumed that the page would be most relevant to sexually experienced young people who may need STI testing. Extract of the ABCD for the Sense.info chlamydia page. The entire ABCD is available in the Open Science Framework Repository [13].

Feasibility and Acceptability of a Motivational Interviewing–Based Telehealth Intervention for Bacterial Sexually Transmitted Infection Screening: Protocol for a Sequential Explanatory Mixed Methods Study

Feasibility and Acceptability of a Motivational Interviewing–Based Telehealth Intervention for Bacterial Sexually Transmitted Infection Screening: Protocol for a Sequential Explanatory Mixed Methods Study

Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men living with HIV (GBMSM-LWH) in the United States bear a heavy burden of bacterial sexually transmitted infections (STIs), such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, and syphilis. National surveillance data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicate that among GBMSM-LWH who presented for HIV medical care in 2022, gonorrhea positivity was greater than and chlamydia positivity was similar to those in GBMSM without HIV or of unknown serostatus [1].

Shifting Grounds—Facilitating Self-Care in Testing for Sexually Transmitted Infections Through the Use of Self-Test Technology: Qualitative Study

Shifting Grounds—Facilitating Self-Care in Testing for Sexually Transmitted Infections Through the Use of Self-Test Technology: Qualitative Study

Chlamydia remains prevalent worldwide and is considered a global public health problem. However, testing rates among young sexually active people remain low. The majority of infected individuals are asymptomatic and potentially constitute a significant reservoir for transmission. In Denmark, far fewer men are tested than women despite men having the highest positivity rate in all age groups [1].

Automating Case Reporting of Chlamydia and Gonorrhea to Public Health Authorities in Illinois Clinics: Implementation and Evaluation of Findings

Automating Case Reporting of Chlamydia and Gonorrhea to Public Health Authorities in Illinois Clinics: Implementation and Evaluation of Findings

The Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists determines the case definition of notifiable conditions and maintains position statements for these conditions, including for chlamydia and gonorrhea [16-18]. An earlier study by Mishra et al [12] leveraged these position statements to develop the case detection logic for chlamydia and gonorrhea in EHRs.

A Pay-It-Forward Approach to Improve Chlamydia and Gonorrhea Testing Uptake Among Female Sex Workers in China: Venue-Based Superiority Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

A Pay-It-Forward Approach to Improve Chlamydia and Gonorrhea Testing Uptake Among Female Sex Workers in China: Venue-Based Superiority Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

Chlamydia and gonorrhea are two of the most common bacterial sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Each year, there are an estimated 129 million new cases of chlamydia and 82 million new cases of gonorrhea globally, and the majority are asymptomatic [1].

Web-Based Risk Prediction Tool for an Individual's Risk of HIV and Sexually Transmitted Infections Using Machine Learning Algorithms: Development and External Validation Study

Web-Based Risk Prediction Tool for an Individual's Risk of HIV and Sexually Transmitted Infections Using Machine Learning Algorithms: Development and External Validation Study

Gonorrhea, chlamydia, and early syphilis can be asymptomatic. There were large increases in STIs in Australia between 2013 and 2017. The notification rates of STIs for chlamydia increased from 302.2/100,000 to 394.9/100,000 in men and from 430.7/100,000 to 441.8/100,000 in women, gonorrhea increased from 91.1/100,000 to 174.2/100,000 in men and from 39.6/100,000 to 61.8/100,000 in women, and syphilis increased from 12.3/100,000 to 31.1/100,000 in men and from 1.4/100,000 to 5.5/100,000 in women [5].

Reducing New Chlamydia Infection Among Young Men by Promoting Correct and Consistent Condom Use: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Reducing New Chlamydia Infection Among Young Men by Promoting Correct and Consistent Condom Use: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

The aim of this trial is to assess the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of HIS-UK delivered by the 2 intervention delivery models (Pro HIS and e-HIS) to reduce chlamydia test positivity among men aged 16-25 years by enhancing condom use experiences and improving correct and consistent condom use, as compared to usual NHS condom distribution care.

A Modified Public Health Automated Case Event Reporting Platform for Enhancing Electronic Laboratory Reports With Clinical Data: Design and Implementation Study

A Modified Public Health Automated Case Event Reporting Platform for Enhancing Electronic Laboratory Reports With Clinical Data: Design and Implementation Study

The CSTE position statements for chlamydia [22] were translated into a CQL query syntax. This incoming positive chlamydia electronic laboratory report triggered an e CR request from the simulated public health department server. First, full end-to-end testing was performed using synthetic data in the form of ELR sent to the GTHD server, which triggered the e CR manager (Figure 1) to send a request to the MUSC PACER server endpoint configured to use the synthetic FHIR data (Figure 2).
