To achieve EMTCT, countries need to meet targets for programme and impact indicators. Methods We examined progress and gaps in service delivery across the three infections among 21 countries with a ...

Expanded Functional Characterization and Optimization of Protein Expression in Treponema denticola Shuttle Plasmids

Molecular Oral Microbiology, Volume 41, Issue 2, Page 69-84, April 2026.
We report optimization of the Treponema denticola shuttle plasmid system by minimizing its size and by characterizing an array of promoter‐gene constructs for genetic complementation, including the first use in Treponema of a Tet‐inducible system for controlled expression of potentially toxic genes.

Low syphilis treatment rates and associated birth outcomes in pregnant women with and without HIV in Zambia: A cohort study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 172, Issue 3, Page 1569-1575, March 2026.
Abstract Objective Syphilis and HIV in pregnancy contribute to adverse birth outcomes in Africa. Benzathine penicillin G remains an effective treatment for syphilis in pregnancy, yet gaps persist in timely treatment. The aim of this study was to compare factors associated with adverse birth outcomes among pregnant women diagnosed with syphilis in ...

Case Report: Syphilitic Hepatitis–A Rare and Underrecognized Etiology of Liver Disease With Potential for Misdiagnosis

Frontiers in Medicine, 2021
Syphilitic hepatitis (SH) in adults is a rare condition that can be easily misdiagnosed. Clinical and histopathologic manifestations of SH can mimic other infectious and non-infectious conditions, and the diagnosis should be considered in all at-risk ...

Screening for treponemal infection by a new enzyme immunoassay. [PDF]

Sexually Transmitted Infections, 1989
A new enzyme immunoassay (EIA, Captia Syphilis-G) for detecting IgG antibodies against Treponema pallidum was evaluated as a screening test for syphilis. When serum samples were tested at a dilution of 1 in 20 (EIA20), the overall agreement between the IgG EIA and serological status based on the T pallidum haemagglutination assay (TPHA) and the ...
