IgM-FTA test in syphilis in adults. Its relation to clinical findings.
IgM-FTA tests have been carried out on 209 sera from 169 patients with treated or untreated syphilis at various stages and on 128 sera from 109 patients, born in areas where yaws is or was prevalent, with treated or untreated latent treponemal disease. IgM anti-treponemal antibody was found in virtually all cases of untreated early or early latent syphilis but in only 23 per cent. of sera from ...
متن کاملWhy is the infectious stage of syphilis prolonged?
There are two main stages in the progress of syphilis: the infectious stage, followed by the non-infectious stage. This distinction between an early infectious and a late stage is useful for the clinician and indispensable when considering the immunological response. It is clearly seen when the treponeme of syphilis is re-inoculated into patients who have already acquired a syphilitic infection...
متن کاملPersistence of T. pallidum and its significance in penicillin-treated seropositive late syphilis.
The observation of T. pallidum-like organisms reported by Collart, Borel, and Durel (1962, a, b, c, 1964) in the lymph nodes of both men and rabbits in seroreactive treated syphilis and the stimulating work of Smith and Israel (1967 a, b, 1968) on intraocular treponemes in late syphilis have created much interest in the survival and virulence of T. pallidum in tissues and body fluids in cases o...
متن کاملEnzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detection of immunoglobulin M antibody against the Reiter treponeme flagellum in syphilis.
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detection of immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibodies against the periplasmatic flagellum of the Reiter treponeme is described. IgM in the test samples was bound to anti-IgM-coated microtest plates, and flagellum-specific IgM antibody was subsequently detected by incubation with a purified flagellum preparation and monospecific anti-flagellum conjugate....
متن کاملSyphilis of the spine.
The manifestations of late syphilis are rarely seen nowadays. In the Oslo study, benign tertiary syphilis occurred in 15-8 per cent. of 1,147 patients with untreated syphilis. The commonest sites of 'benign' tertiary syphilis were the skin, the mucous membranes, and the bones (70 0, 10-3, and 9-6 per cent. of all cases, respectively) (Gjestland, 1955). Thus, syphilis affecting the bones can be ...
