    Abstract The genus Chlamydia comprises obligate intracellular bacteria that infect a wide variety of hosts, with infection leading to a range of diseases in humans and animals; they thus constitute a major public health threat. Among the members of the Chlamydiaceae family, Chlamydia suis, C. abortus, C. pecorum, and C. psittaci represent the most important pathogenic species infecting a large range of hosts and are a well-established threat to livestock. Information regarding the circulation of Chlamydia species in ruminants from Vietnam is lacking. In this study, DNA extracted from 60 blood samples collected from goats in Hue province was used for Chlamydia spp. identification by classic PCR and Sanger sequencing. Chlamydia spp. were detected in eleven samples (18.3%) and C. abortus and C. psittaci were molecularly identified by sequencing. Despite the limited sample size in this study, findings point out the relevance of ruminants as hosts of chlamydial species in Central Vietnam and the importance of monitoring chlamydial strains through the activation of surveillance programs in this country. The need for a deeper evaluation of human and animal health risk analysis in terms of chlamydiosis should be also considered.

    Abstract Background: Tuberculosis (TB) and drug-resistant TB (DR-TB) are national health burdens in Vietnam. In this study, we investigated the prevalence of rifampicin (RIF) and/or isoniazid (isonicotinic acid hydrazide, INH) resistance in patients with suspected TB, and applied appropriate techniques to help rapidly target DR-TB.
    Methods: In total, 1,547 clinical specimens were collected and cultured using the BACTEC MGIT system (Becton Dickinson and Co.). A resazurin microtiter assay (REMA) was used to determine the proportions of RIF and/or INH resistance. A real-time polymerase chain reaction panel with TaqMan probes was employed to identify the mutations of rpoB and katG associated with DR-TB in clinical isolates. Genotyping of the identified mutations was also performed.
    Results: A total of 468 Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates were identified using the REMA. Of these isolates, 106 (22.6%) were found to be resistant to 1 or both antibiotics. Of the resistant isolates, 74 isolates (69.8%) were resistant to isoniazid (INH) only, while 1 isolate (0.94%) was resistant to RIF only. Notably, 31 isolates (29.24%) were resistant to both antibiotics. Of the 41 phenotypically INH-resistant isolates, 19 (46.3%) had the Ser315Thr mutation. There were 8 different rpoB mutations in 22 (68.8%) of the RIF-resistant isolates. The most frequently detected mutations were at codons 531 (37.5%), 526 (18.8%), and 516 (6.3%).
    Conclusion: To help prevent new cases of DR-TB in Vietnam, it is crucial to gain a comprehensive understanding of the genotypic DR-TB isolates.

    Abstract Introduction: This study aims to determine the genital HPV prevalence in reproductive-age women in Thua Thien Hue Province and comparison with HPV incidence in Hue University Hospital, Vietnam.
    Methodology: Cross-sectional study on 1,034 women of reproductive age from 11 communes/wards of three districts representing three different geographic areas of Thua Thien Hue Province, Vietnam. The hospital-based group included 102 women with cervicitis and/or abnormal Pap smear result coming to Hue University Hospital. Extracting DNA from cervical samples, performing the real-time PCR for detecting HPV and the reverse dot-blot assay for HPV typing in HPV positive cases.
    Results: In community, HPV prevalence was 0.9%. Mean-age of HPV positive group was 37.9 ± 6.2 years. The detected low-risk types were 6 and 11; high-risk types include 16, 18, 33, 45, 52, and 58. Single-type infection was found in 66.7% of cases. In hospital-based group, 41.2% of women have been infected with HPV, 6 different HPV types were detected. HPV18 was the most frequent high-risk type (33.3%), followed by HPV16 (15.1%); HPV6 was the most frequent among low-risk HPV types (31.2%). Single-type infection rate was 33,3%; 2 and 3 types co-infections were 28,6% and 38.1%, respectively.
    Conclusions: Routine screening of high-risk HPV infection in women with symptomatic gynecologic infection and/or abnormal Pap smear appears to be benefit in early detection and prevention of cervical cancer, due to the high incidence of HPV infection.
