Some of this can be attributed to our lack of knowledge about the change of disease spectrum from time to time.Aims: The aim of the study was to understand the changing pattern of STDs over the past 17 years (2003-2019).Materials and methods: It was a retrospective study where data of patients who attended our Suraksha Clinic from 2003 to 2019 were collected. All the cases were subjected to detailed history, examination, and investigations done to rule out STDs.Results: A total of 2436 patients were included in the study. The majority of the patients were in the age group of 18-30 years. The most frequent diagnosis was vulvovaginal candidiasis, followed by herpes genitalis. 3.3% of patients had human immunodeficiency virus. 4.8% of patients were men sex men (MSM). Overall, viral STDs were most common, followed by fungal and bacterial. To understand the changing trends, data were divided into different phases according to the time period. During Phase 1 (2003-2007), viral STDs were most common, followed by bacterial and fungal. However, this trend changed in Phase 4 (2016-2019) and fungal STDs became most common.Conclusions: Despite numerous health initiatives, the number of STD cases is rising day by day. The increasing number of MSM over the study period necessitates dedicated efforts to address the health needs of this population. The National AIDS Control Organization should take necessary measures and steps to address the overall increase in STDs considering recent trends showing a drop in bacterial STDs and an increase in fungal and viral STDs.","PeriodicalId":44880,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Sexually Transmitted Diseases and AIDS","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10785100/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139467265","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The most common STIs were syphilis (53.75%), genital warts (30%) and herpes genitalis (20.62%). Syphilis was the most frequent STI among MSM (48/74, 64.90%) as well as non-MSM (38/86, 44.20%); though its frequency was significantly more among MSM (P < 0.01).

The changing etiology in GUDs over the years makes it imperative that a correct diagnosis is made to establish appropriate treatment and formulate awareness programs.Aims: This study was done to determine the recent trends in the demographic parameters, clinical presentations, etiology of GUDs, and their association with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).Materials and methods: An observational cross-sectional study was conducted from October 2021 to August 2022 at the Dermatology Outpatient Department in our hospital. All the patients who presented with GUDs were included after written informed consent. The diagnosis of GUD was confirmed by thorough clinical examination and appropriate laboratory test. Data were entered and analyzed using IBM SPSS software.Results: Out of 135 cases of GUDs, the majority were males (79%). The most common age group was 21-30 years, with a mean age of 35.23 ± 14.98 years. Most of the patients were heterosexual (90%). Multiple sexual partners were found in 40% of cases. Herpes genitalis was the most common GUD (59%), followed by syphilis (15%). HIV infection was found in 6.6% of cases.Conclusion: This study represents the increasing burden of viral GUDs compared to the last three decades. The ulcerative sexually transmitted infection facilitates the transmission of HIV. In this HIV era, there is a need for increased efforts toward acknowledgment, safe sexual practices, periodic screening, and sexual health awareness programs in the high-risk population.","PeriodicalId":44880,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Sexually Transmitted Diseases and AIDS","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10785111/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139467311","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

LGTI is strongly associated with major adverse pregnancy outcomes such as spontaneous preterm delivery (SPTD), premature rupture of membranes (PROM), and neonatal morbidities.Materials and methods: A prospective cohort study was performed in a tertiary care hospital in Gujarat with the objective of finding out the presence of LGTI in the second trimester and looking for its association with various adverse pregnancy outcomes. Two hundred and fifty pregnant women were screened for the presence of vaginal discharge. Various microbiological examinations were done. Diagnosis of specific LGTI was made based on the predecided criteria. Patients were followed up till delivery and maternal and neonatal outcomes were recorded. Data were compared to find out a possible association between LGTI and various adverse pregnancy outcomes such as SPTD, PROM, and neonatal deaths.Results: Out of 194 LGTI cases diagnosed, 54% were having bacterial vaginosis (BV), while 3% were diagnosed having trichomonas. While observing an association of LGTIs and adverse pregnancy outcomes, a maximum number of PROM were observed in the BV and beta Streptococcus infections group. Neonatal admissions were required in 60% of cases. Intrauterine fetal deaths and neonatal deaths were observed in only laboratory-positive cases mainly associated with beta Streptococcus infection and trichomonas.Conclusion: In this study, the most common LGTI prevalent in pregnant women was BV and the least common was trichomoniasis. There was a significant positive association present between LGTIs and adverse pregnancy outcomes such as SPTD and PROM.","PeriodicalId":44880,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Sexually Transmitted Diseases and AIDS","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10785108/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139467273","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Demographic parameters and medical history were recorded. Clinical examination and necessary investigations were done in pregnant females and their spouses. History about sexual behavior and knowledge of STIs were obtained from the questionnaire.Results: The prevalence of STIs in pregnant women was 2.1% (n = 61) out of 2894 pregnant women who attended our institute during the study period with the highest prevalence of HIV (1.1%), and out of 54 examined spouses, 32 spouses were suffering from STIs. Overall, women had poor awareness, knowledge of STIs, and preventive measures compared to men. A significant association was seen between level of education and awareness about HIV/AIDS and other STIs, both in pregnant women and their spouses.Conclusion: Our study showed an overall low prevalence of STIs among pregnant women but showed higher HIV and syphilis prevalence as compared to national prevalence.
