Ascension of Chlamydia is moderated by uterine peristalsis and the neutrophil response to infection
Fig 5
Histogram of the proportion of simulations leading to ascension of bacteria, and the amount of bacteria predicted by the model to ascend.
The amount of bacteria predicted to ascend (x axis) and the proportions of each simulation that resulted in ascension (y axis) from 252, 500 simulations of the model. These are simulated over a range of infectious loads (10 simulations at each value of infectious load from 1 to 10001 in steps of 100.
