Abstract:
Syphilis is a systemic infectious disease caused by Troponema palidum. Syphilis is generally transmitted through sexual contact, but can also be transmitted vertically during pregnancy. Until now syphilis has become a world wide problem for pregnant women, WHO recommends syphilis tested by triple elimination (syphilis, hepatitis B, and HIV) during antenatal care for better pregnancy outcomes.21 year old female, diagnosed with primipara 32-33 weeks of gestational age active phase of labor, latent syphilis + intrauterine single live fetus with head presentation.

Abstract:
A cross-sectional study was conducted among displaced pregnant women in Mozambique to determine the prevalence and correlates of HIV infection and syphilis. Between September 1992 and February 1993, 1728 consecutive antenatal attendees of 14 rural clinics in Zambézia were interviewed, examined, and tested for HIV and syphilis antibodies. The seroprevalence of syphilis and HIV were 12.2% and 2.9%, respectively. Reported sexual abuse was frequent (8.4%) but sex for money was uncommon. A positive MHA-TP result was significantly associated with unmarried status, history of past STD, HIV infection, and current genital ulcers, vaginal discharge, or genital warts. Significant correlates of HIV seropositivity included anal intercourse, history of past STD, and syphilis. In summary, displaced pregnant women had a high prevalence of syphilis but a relatively low HIV seroprevalence suggesting recent introduction of HIV infection in this area or slow spread of the epidemic. A syphilils screening and treatment programme is warranted to prevent perinatal transmission and to reduce the incidence of chancres as a cofactor for HIV transmission.

Abstract:
Secondary syphilids on oral mucosa and lips are acute contagious; in addition, they are quite often the only clinical manifestation of the syphilis. Therefore the recognition of oral mucosal syphilids is an important, high-priority task. Purpose. To consider the peculiarities and clinical variants of oral mucosal syphilids, what may occur by usual examinations of patients. Material and methods. We observed 36 patients with secondary syphilis, who have syphilids on the oral mucosa or lips. It is presented 12 characteristic cases. The complex serodiagnostic tests for syphilis and HIV and clinical examination of all patients were maked. Results. The oral mucosal syphilids in hall cases (39-71%; p = 0.05), especially by recidive syphilis, were presented the MILIARY “point-papules” or “streak-papules” which grouped in the form of a “seed-pearls strings and rings”. The photographing is handy for their detection. Mucosal PLAQUES and lenticular papules are “delicate” (non-hard), opaline. They are marked but they accounted for little more of half of mucosal eruptions (50-81%; p = 0.05). Besides they were in ⅓ cases with miliary papules combined. Mucosal plaques are focal arranged or else they closely grouped (phenomenon “pseudo confluence”). Imaginary confluenсe of plaques, which are similar in size but various macerated, is particular specific (“mosaic lesion”). ERYTHEMA is out-lined, deep-red, in the form of “stamped” rounded sports (on the hard palate) or else as erythematous angina (on the molle palate) observed. Erythema were occurred in 13-41% of cases, often with papules were combined. PATHOGNOMIC indications of secondary syphilids are geometry regular form and grouping, rounded and out-lined contours, similarity in size. These peculiarities are attributable to the fact that eruptions are developed in places, where the circulating immune complexes (CIC) were fixated. CIC have bioelectric charge. Therefore, CIC arranged and fixed to a force isolines of natural electrostatic field in the tissue. These isolines have geometry regular form of arc or circle. The mechanism of CIC-fixation can be to describe by biophysical theory DLFO (Deryagin-Landau-Forway-Overbeck). The local conditions for CIC-fixation and for formation of infiltrate (papules) are created by lesions of small arterioles and local blood-stream disorders. Conclusion. Secondary syphilids on the oral mucosa are multiform. The use of photographing is handy for detection of miliary papules, which are often, but barely visible.

Abstract:
We report a case of early syphilis, presenting as balanitis and papular syphilides in an HIV-infected patient, with a previous history of syphilis infection, which demonstrated a false negative VDRL testing due to a prozone phenomenon. This false negative response results from overwhelming antibody titers, which interfere with the proper formation of the antigen-antibody lattice network, necessary to visualize a positive flocculation test.

Abstract:
Relevance. HIV infection is a chronic sexually transmitted infectious disease. Given the single route of transmission, quite often HIV-infected patients develop a syphilitic infection. At the same time, syphilis against the background of HIV infection has its own clinical characteristics. It is important for doctors of various specialties to know these features.Description of the case. A clinical case of secondary syphilis and early neurosyphilis in a 52-year-old patient with HIV infection is presented.Discussion. Patients with HIV infection are characterized by unusual clinical manifestations of syphilis in the form of its malignity, atypical, severe course with the development of various complications. In the article, the authors describe atypical manifestations of papular syphilide of the palms and soles. The effectiveness of specific treatment has been shown.Conclusions. Doctors’ knowledge of the clinical features of syphilis against the background of HIV infection will allow them to avoid diagnostic errors leading to late treatment and the development of complications.

Routinely collected anonymised data were collected on choice of test.Abstract P121 Table 1Results from Choose to test<2424+BMEMSMGenital GC/CT*YesYesYesYesOral GC/CT*NoNoNoYesAnal GC/CT*NoNoNoYesSyphilisNoNoNoYesHIVNoNoYesYesResults2550 users ordered tests (30/10/16 – 19/12/16). 56% were <24, 10% were from black or ethnic minority (BME) groups and 17% were men who have sex with men (MSM). 1853 (72.6%) returned a test, 6.7% were positive for any STI. Of the non-BME/non-MSM users offered chlamydia/gonorrhoea testing, 66% chose to add HIV + syphillis testing. Of the BME/non-MSM users offered chlamydia/gonorrhoea + HIV testing, 71% chose to add syphilis testing. Of the MSM users offered chlamydia/gonorrhoea (genital, oral, anal) + HIV + syphilis testing, 85% chose this option. 6% chose to omit the HIV/syphilis test. User choice resulted in 611 fewer HIV tests, 596 fewer syphilis tests and 27 fewer chlamydia/gonorrhoea tests.DiscussionOnline service users actively exercise choice in STI test selection. The majority of users choose to test for chlamydia, gonorrhoea, HIV and syphilis regardless of what they are offered. User choice of test reduces the total number of tests offered online.

Abstract:
Objective. Tenosynovitis, inflammation of a tendon and its synovial sheath, is a rare manifestation of secondary syphilis and if diagnosed early is reversible.Background. A 52-year-old male with past medical history of untreated syphilis presented with gradual onset of swelling and pain of the right fourth metacarpophalangeal joint (MCP). He reported a history of painless penile lesions after having sexual intercourse with a new partner approximately five months ago which was treated with sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim. An RPR done at that time came back positive with a high titer; however, patient was lost to follow-up. On examination, patient had an edematous, nonerythematous right fourth proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint. Urgent irrigation, debridement, and exploration of the right hand into the tendon sheath were performed. With his history of syphillis, an RPR was done, which was reactive with a titer of 1 : 64. A confirmatory FTA-ABS test was completed, rendering a positive result. Based on his history of untreated syphilis, dormancy followed by clinical scenario of swelling of the right fourth finger, and a high RPR titer, he was diagnosed with secondary syphilis manifesting as tenosynovitis.

Abstract:
Syphilis and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection are diseases of an infectious nature with a predominantly sexual route of infection. Despite the decrease in the incidence of syphilis in recent years in Russia, there is an increase in HIV infection. The combination of several infections in one patient leads to changes in clinical manifestations, which sometimes significantly complicates their diagnosis, leading to a late start of treatment. Syphilis against the background of HIV infection proceeds in stages, but usually it has a malignant, aggressive and severe course, often with the development of atypical forms and complications. The primary syphilis against the background of HIV infection is characterized by the appearance of ulcerative-necrotic character of the hard chancre, such severe complications as phagedenism and gangrenization, the frequent addition of a secondary infection, severe soreness of the hard chancre. Secondary syphilides in HIV-infected patients are characterized by the appearance of ulceration with the formation of necrotizing vasculitis, extraordinary infectiousness of the elements. The disease progresses rapidly and over a few months from the moment of infection, manifest neurosyphilis or tertiary syphilis may develop due to immunodeficiency. The authors describe the features of the manifestations of syphilis in its different periods against the background of HIV infection. A clinical case of a 35-year-old woman who was diagnosed with secondary syphilis and HIV infection is presented. The patient had numerous skin rashes, which were interpreted differently by doctors of different specialties for 2 months. The patient was diagnosed with pyoderma, "allergy", infectious exanthema, however, against the background of the treatment, there was a negative dynamics of the skin process. The authors have demonstrated the effectiveness of specific therapy: complete resolution of skin rashes.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Sexually Transmitted Infection is still a public health problem globally, because the pattern of the disease almost occurs in all countries until now, especially syphilis. Homosexual behavior, sexual promiscuity, and migration from one place to another can be potential to be transmitted by syphilis. This study aimed to analyze the influence of behavioral factors towards the incidence of syphilis in the work area of the Public Health Centers in Medan, 2019. Subjects and Method: A case control study was conducted in Teladan, Helvetia and Padang Bulan Public health centre. A sample of 80 consisting of 40 cases and 40 control was selected by purposive sampling. The dependent variable was syphilis. The independent variables were HIV status, history of sexually transmitted diseases, previous history of syphilis, history of circumcision, use of condoms, use of drugs, number of sex partners and the average frequency of sex. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple logistic regression. Results: Variables that influence syphilis are the history of syphilis (OR= 28.52; 95% CI= 7.55 to 107.78; p= 0.0001) and drug use (OR= 15.12; 95% CI= 2.57 to 89.24; p= 0.003). Meanwhile, HIV status (OR = 1.55; 95% CI= 0.41 to 5.87; p= 0.520), use of condoms (OR= 0.2 01; 95% CI= 0.63 to 8.90; p= 0.201) and sexually transmitted diseases (OR= 1.53; 95%CI= 0.23 to 10.18; p= 0.660). The previous history of syphilis was the dominant influence of the incidence of syphilis (OR=28.52; 95% CI= 7.55 to 107.78; p=0.001). Conclusion: Variables that influence syphilis are the history of syphilis (OR= 28.52; 95% CI= 7.55 to 107.78; p= 0.0001) and drug use (OR= 15.12; 95% CI= 2.57 to 89.24; p= 0.003). Meanwhile, HIV status (OR = 1.55; 95% CI= 0.41 to 5.87; p= 0.520), use of condoms (OR= 0.2 01; 95% CI= 0.63 to 8.90; p= 0.201) and sexually transmitted diseases (OR= 1.53; 95%CI= 0.23 to 10.18; p= 0.660). The previous history of syphilis was the dominant influence of the incidence of syphilis (OR=28.52; 95% CI= 7.55 to 107.78; p=0.001). Conclusion: It is recommended that the Health Service of Medan can give inputs for developing health intervention program, including the evaluation of STI intervention programs. The management of Teladan, Helvetia and Padang Bulan Public Health Centers should increase counseling, medication, and prevention programs towards syphilis for the high risk male population.

Abstract:
Patients both with syphilis and with the Anti-Phospholipid Syndrome (APS) produce antibodies that bind cardiolipin (CL). However, thrombosis, fetal loss, and thrombocytopenia, as well as lupus anticoagulant (LA) activity occur in APS but not syphilis patients. Differences between aCL antibodies produced in these 2 disorders have been suggested but not proven. We report a newly devised ELI9A assay using carbon coated VDRL (C-VDRL) as antigen, as well as a variety of other ELISA assays with various phospholipids as antigens, to study sera from 20 syphilis and 10 APS patients. Inhibition experiments were alSo performed to support findings with the ELISA assays. Syphilis sera bound both CL and C-VDRL coated plates, but binding to C-VDRL was always greater. APS sera bound CL but not C-VDRL plates. When plates were coated with low concentrations of negatively charged PLs, syphilis sera bound CL almost exclusively but APS sera bound negatively charged phospholipids (PLs) as well as they did CL. Inhibition experiments confirmed the high avidity of syphilis sera for CL, particularly when presented as the VDRL antigen; but APS sera bound negatively charged PLs as avidly as CL. Neither syphilis nor APS sera bound zwitterionic phospholipids. These findings may be important in that CL is limited primarily to mitochondrial membranes, but negatively charged PLs are widely distributed in cell membranes of the body. Hence, autoimmune sera which binds negatively charged PLs as well as CL may affect cell function more readily than syphilis sera which is limited primarily to CL binding. Too, negatively charged PLs (but not CL) are present in PL mixtures used in the LA test, hence APS (but not syphilis) plasma would more likely show LA activity. The genetic origins of these 2 groups of antibodies may also be different although they bind related antigens.

Abstract:
Introduction: Syphilis is an infectious disease that has vertical transmission. If left untreated, it can lead to severe neurological problems, seizures, cerebral palsy, mental retardation, and learning problems in the baby. Objective: To carry out epidemiological investigations to monitor cases of syphilis and treat infected pregnant women early. Methods: This study statistically analyzes and describes the cases of congenital syphilis in São Paulo between 2010 and 2020 through data obtained by the Information System of Notifiable Diseases (SINAN). Results: The total number of cases of syphilis during pregnancy was 81,401 and 30,665 (37.67%) evolved to congenital syphilis. From 2010 to 2020, the percentage change in the number of annual cases was 169.94%. Among the metropolitan regions, São Paulo had the highest incidence (55.67%). The mother diagnosis occurred during prenatal care in 59.59% of cases; At the time of delivery or curettage: 33.19%; after delivery: 4.67% Ignored/ blank: 2.26%; Regarding skin color/ethnicity there is 18.36% (ignored in the research); White: 44.13%; Black: 4.26%; Yellow: 0.16%; Brown: 32.87%; Indigenous: 0.19%. Data on the mother’s education show that 22.09% have incomplete elementary school; 10.93% completed elementary school; 13.19% have incomplete secondary education; 19.58% have completed secondary education; 1.06% have incomplete higher education and 1.18% have completed higher education; Ignored/blank: 30.79%. The data found that 17.34% did not realize prenatal care. Besides, 66.88% of partners did not realize treatment. Conclusion: Cases of congenital syphilis are associated with lower maternal education, and white and brown skin color, thus being associated with greater social vulnerability. The growing increase in cases of congenital syphilis shows a public health problem and failures in prenatal care and treatment follow-up.

Abstract:
We examine the role of Venezuelan forced migration on the propagation of 15 infectious dis-eases in Colombia. For this purpose, we use rich municipal-monthly panel data. We exploit the fact that municipalities closer to the main migration entry points have a disproportionate ex-posure to infected migrants when the cumulative migration flows increase. We find that higher refugee inflows are associated with increments in the incidence of vaccine-preventable dis-eases, such as chickenpox and tuberculosis, as well as sexually transmitted diseases, including AIDS and syphilis. However, we find no significant effects of migration on the propagation of vector-borne diseases. Contact with infected migrants upon arrival seems to be the main driving mechanism.

Kenya: On-site antenatal syphilis services are cost-effective. Population Council, 2001. http://dx.doi.org/10.31899/rh2001.1020.

Full text
Abstract:
The World Health Organization has determined that screening and treating all pregnant women for syphilis is cost-effective if at least 0.1 percent of pregnant women have syphilis. To address the high rate of syphilis among pregnant women (6.5–7.3 percent), the Nairobi City Council (NCC) introduced maternal syphilis screening and management in its antenatal clinics in 1989. However, its centralized approach—taking collected blood samples to a central laboratory for testing—was inefficient. Therefore, in 1992 the NCC tested a decentralized approach in 9 of its 54 antenatal clinics, which featured on-site rapid testing of women by clinic staff and same-day treatment of positive women by nurses, and promotion of notification and presumptive treatment of the positive women’s partners. This approach was deemed successful and was replicated in five additional clinics. In 2000, the Population Council conducted a case study to assess the effectiveness, cost, and sustainability of the decentralized syphilis screening program after eight years of operation. As noted in this brief, providing antenatal clients with same-day screening and treatment for syphilis resulted in higher treatment rates for positive clients and their partners at an affordable cost.

A case study of Nairobi City Council's decentralised syphilis screening programme in antenatal clinics. Population Council, 2001. http://dx.doi.org/10.31899/rh2001.1000.

Full text
Abstract:
It has long been known that syphilis is one of the more serious sexually transmitted infections (STI), especially during pregnancy when, if untreated, at least 60 percent of infected women will experience an adverse pregnancy outcome. There has been renewed interest in its control and prevention because of its proven link with HIV transmission. In 1992, the Nairobi City Council (NCC) pilot-tested a decentralized approach to syphilis screening and management in a sample of their antenatal clinics. A case study was carried out to assess the effectiveness, readiness, and cost effectiveness of the NCC’s antenatal care program, with a focus on the decentralized syphilis screening and treatment service. This report concludes that decentralization of maternal syphilis screening and management is feasible in a public-sector urban program, and, when implemented properly, leads to more antenatal clients and their partners being screened and treated. However, the NCC clinics are insufficiently prepared to offer good quality antenatal services and to ensure that syphilis screening and treatment are available for all antenatal clients.

Integrating STI/HIV services into existing MCH/FP programs. Population Council, 1998. http://dx.doi.org/10.31899/rh1998.1003.

Full text
Abstract:
The presence of certain STIs increases the risk of the sexual transmission of HIV. Thus, controlling STIs can reduce the incidence of HIV. Almost all women in the East and Southern African regions attend MCH/FP clinics regularly, and recent surveys have shown that the prevalence levels of many STIs, including HIV, can be high for women seeking FP and antenatal services, even though they are frequently asymptomatic. MCH/FP services are provided by medically trained staff with many of the same skills needed for managing STIs. Consequently, several MCH/FP programs have started looking for ways to integrate STI management strategies, such as STI screening, treatment, and education, into their routine services. The Population Council’s Africa OR/TA Project undertook case studies of four such programs in Botswana; Nakuru, Kenya; Mombasa, Kenya; and Busoga, Uganda. The model includes case detection and treatment, HIV/AIDS management, detection and treatment of syphilis, and information and education materials. This summary explains that STI and HIV/AIDS management services can be integrated successfully into existing MCH/FP programs in East and Southern Africa.
