Background In recent years, the incidence of syphilis has increased year by year. Our study is to explore the risk factors for the development of neurosyphilis in patients who failed syphilis treatment. Methods A total number of 165 patients with complete medical records and who agreed to undergo lumbar puncture were divided into 47 neurosyphilis cases and 118 non-neurosyphilis cases according to the diagnostic criteria of neurosyphilis, and the differences in clinical characteristics and laboratory features between the two groups were analyzed. Significant variables were entered into multivariable logistic regression models. Results (1) There were statistical differences (p < 0.05) between the neurosyphilis (NS) group and the non-neurosyphilis (NNS) group in terms of the higher proportion of male and serum rapid plasma reagin (RPR) > 1:32 and the elevated cerebrospinal fluid white blood cell (CSF WBC) and CSF protein in the neurosyphilis group compared with the non-neurosyphilis group. (2) Male gender, serum RPR titers >1:32 at lumbar puncture, CSF WBC >8 × 106/L were significantly associated with neurosyphilis. Conclusion For patients who have failed syphilis treatment, lumbar puncture should be performed to exclude neurosyphilis, to enable early diagnosis and treatment, and to prevent irreversible damage of neurosyphilis, especially if the patient is male and has a serum RPR>1:32 and elevated CSF WBC at lumbar puncture, which are risk factors for neurosyphilis.

Objective To determine whether HIV infection affects biological false positive (BFP) for Rapid plasma regain (RPR) in populations of "men sex with men (MSM)".Methods Screening of RPR、TPPA and HIV antibody was performed in a cohort of MSM.The incidence of BFP for RPR (RPR-BFP) was compared in HIV + vs.HIV-.Result A total of 10,000 MSM subjects were tested.The rates of RPR-BFP were no significant differences in HIV + vs.HIV-groups [0.15 % (3/1 989) vs.0.27% (22/8 011),p.0.05].Conclusion HIV infection does not affect the rate of RPR-BFP.
A rapidly escalating outbreak of syphilis infection has been affected men who have sex with men, particularly those with HIV-1 infection. γδ T cells are unconventional immune cells with two main subsets, Vδ1 T cells and Vδ2 T cells, which possess a combination of innate and adaptive immune features allowing them against HIV-1. However, whether syphilis infection affects the phenotype and function of γδ T cells in HIV-1-infected patients remains unclear, especially in acute HIV-1 infection (AHI). In this study, we enrolled 57 HIV-1-infected patients (24 with HIV-1 infection only and 33 coinfected with syphilis) from an acute HIV-1-infected cohort in Beijing (PRIMO). A comprehensive analysis of γδ T-cell phenotype and function was performed by flow cytometry. We found syphilis coinfection could reverse the imbalance of Vδ1/Vδ2 ratio in AHI. Syphilis infection results in decreased γδ T-cell activation in AHI, but increased γδ T-cell activation in chronic HIV-1 infection (CHI). Moreover, patients with CHI had larger numbers of IL-17-producing γδ T cells than those with AHI, regardless of syphilis status. Thus, syphilis affected the γδ T-cell immune response differently in patients depending on the stages of HIV-1 disease. In addition, the percentage of IL-17-producing γδ T cells was positively correlated with the percentage of neutrophils. These results suggest that the γδ T-cell/IL-17/neutrophil axis is involved in HIV-1 pathogenesis and disease progression. Taken together, our observations provide new insight into the roles of γδ T cells in immunopathogenesis of syphilis and HIV-1 coinfection, particularly during AHI, and our findings may be helpful for the prevention of syphilis and other sexually transmitted infections and highlight the great significance on the remedy of patients coinfected with HIV-1.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of qi-boosting spleen-fortifying therapy combined with highly active antiretroviral therapy(HAART)on human immunodeficiency virus infection/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome(HIV/ AIDS).Methods Totally 86cases of HIV/AIDS were randomized into the treatment group and control group,with 43cases in each.The treatment group was given qi-boosting spleen-fortifying formulas combined with HAART.The control group was given HAART.Observed indicators including CD4+T cell count,symptom and sign integral,Karnofsky performance scale(KPS)and liver function before,6months and 12months after treatment.The therapeutic effect was judged after 12-month treatment.Results There were 5cases(11.63%)and 6cases(13.95%)of endpoint events occurred in the treatment group and control group respectively,with no significant difference between groups(P0.05).The symptom and sign scores were significantly decreased but the KPS scores were significantly increased in both groups after 6-month and 12-month treatment(P0.05).There were significant differences between groups in the symptom and sign scores and KPS scores after 6-month treatment(P0.05),but there was no significant difference between groups after 12-month treatment(P0.05).The CD4+ T cell count was significantly increased in both groups after 6-month and 12-month treatment(P0.05),but with no significant difference between groups(P0.05).The level of Alanine aminotransferase(ALT)was significantly decreased in the treatment group but significantly increased in the control group after 6-month and 12-month treatment(P0.05).There was no significant difference between groups in ALT after 6-month treatment(P0.05),but with a significant difference between groups after 12-month treatment(P0.01).Conclusion The combo therapy of qi-boosting spleen-fortifying therapy and HAART can relieve symptoms and signs,improve quality of life and reduce liver damage.
