115. Rates of Reinfection for Trichomonas vaginalis in Adolescents and Young adults: an Assessment Following the CDC STI Treatment Guidelines in 2021
In 2021, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) revised the treatment recommendation for Trichomonas vaginalis from a single dose to a 7-day course of metronidazole. Given the high risk of Trichomonas infection in adolescents and young adults (AYA), this study evaluated reinfection rates before and after the change in CDC treatment guidelines.

Effect of Phytochemical Compounds on Trichomonas tenax, an Oral Protozoan
Altern Ther Health Med. 2024 Mar 22:AT7352. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTrichomonas tenax is an oral protozoan with an estimated global pooled prevalence of 17% in the human population.1 Observational studies have demonstrated a significant statistical correlation between oral colonization by T. tenax and the progression of periodontal disease.2 Proposed pathogenic mechanisms for this protozoan include the production of tissue-damaging enzymes, induction of apoptosis in human cells, and dysbiosis of the oral microbiome.3 In patients for whom metronidazole (MTZ) is contraindicated, phytochemicals may offer a viable altern...

Prevalence and molecular characterization of Trichomonas gallinae from pigeons in Anhui, China
This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and genotypes of T. gallinae in Anhui Province, China. A total of 1612 oropharyngeal swab samples were collected from pigeon farms in Anhui Province to determine the prevalence of T. gallinae infection. The results revealed 565 (35.1%) positive samples of T. gallinae. Significant differences in infection rates were observed among different regions and age groups. Furthermore, the ITS1/5.8 S/ITS2 region was amplified, sequenced, and subjected to phylogenetic analysis. Genotypes A and B of T. gallinae were identified, and genotype B was the dominant genotype in Anhui Province. T...
