Abstract

Novel risks for C trachomatis include preceding human papillomavirus, smoking, and substance use, which may reflect both biological and behavioral mechanisms of risk such as immune modulation, higher-risk sexual networks, or both. Improved understanding of the biological bases for C trachomatis risk would inform our strategies for C trachomatis control.
