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,

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:
Syphilis, a chronic systemic infection caused by Treponema pallidum, reemerges as a major global health concern due to its rising incidence and wide-ranging clinical presentations. While often regarded as a sexually transmitted infection confined to the genital tract, syphilis frequently involves multiple organ systems, particularly in its secondary and tertiary stages. This review highlights the key organ-specific manifestations of syphilis, focusing on cardiovascular, pulmonary, hepatic, renal, and neurological complications.

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 feature

In 1992, the Nairobi City Council (NCC) pilot-tested a decentralized approach to syphilis screening and management in a sample of their antenatal clinics.

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
