Single-dose 1000 mg ertapenem is non-inferior to single-dose 500 mg ceftriaxone in gonorrhoea treatment. Yet, 5 mg/kg gentamicin (maximum 400 mg) is not non-inferior to ceftriaxone. Ertapenem is a potential effective alternative for anogenital N gonorrhoeae infections and merits evaluation for ceftriaxone-resistant infections.

Background Screening for Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) and Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) at genital and extragenital sites is needed for most key populations, but molecular diagnostic tests for CT/NG are costly. We aimed to determine the accuracy of pooled samples from multiple anatomic sites from one individual to detect CT/NG using the testing of a single sample from one anatomic site as the…

Selective testing potentially misses more than two-thirds of oropharyngeal N gonorrhoeae infections in women, of whom half have oropharyngeal infections without concurrent genital or anorectal infections. Using independent risk factors for oropharyngeal infection to guide testing is a minimal testing strategy. Routine universal testing is the optimum scenario to detect the majority of infections….

E.g. do pros of #doxycycline PEP now outweigh potential cons, at least in short term?! https://t.co/DjMOR0Cq0y https://t.co/Hva2qYgNJd
