Chlamydia pneumoniae and coronary artery disease: controversial results of serological studies.

Gulay Yetkin.   

Abstract

I have read with great interest the article published by Carratelli et al. Briefly they have reported increased levels of inflammatory markers and elevated titers of IgG and IgA of C. pneumoniae by using both ELISA and MIF method. There are several factors which may underly the controversial results of seroepidemiological studies. I have commented on the report of Carratelli et al. regarding some of these factors.
