Résumé
Background
Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) caused by Chlamydia trachomatis (C. trachomatis) remains a significant global reproductive health challenge. Understanding its variation across age groups, time periods, and geographic and sociodemographic contexts is essential for effective prevention strategies.
Methods
Estimates of C. trachomatis-related PID among women aged 15-49 years from 1990 to 2021 were analyzed. Temporal trends were quantified using estimated annual percent change (EAPC), and associations with the Sociodemographic Index (SDI) were examined. Future prevalence through 2050 was projected using autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) models.
