Why on earth do people get syphilis? Expert interpretation of what to do after being infected with syphilis
Is syphilis related to lymphocyte infiltration? What is the cause of syphilis? Is lymphocyte infiltration the cause of syphilis? What details should be noted? Please read the detailed analysis of the following article.
The main causes of syphilis are:
After syphilis invades the human body, it undergoes a latent period of 2-3 weeks, which is skin damage (typical damage is hard ptosis), which is the first stage of syphilis. After skin injury, the body produces antibodies. From the experimental syphilis research in rabbits, it is proved that the early tissue feature of syphilis is the invasion of monocytes on the sixth day of infection, that is, lymphocyte infiltration. At this time, syphilis spirochete is seen in the epithelial cell gap, located in the epithelial cells sinking or phagocytosis, or fibroblasts plasma cell, small capillary endothelial cells, lymphatic vessels and local lymph nodes. This is the main cause of syphilis. Due to the immune function, Treponema pallidum quickly eliminates from the lesion. On the 24th day of infection, immunofluorescence testing did not detect that most of the spirochetes of syphilis had been killed, entering an asymptomatic incubation period, which is the first stage of latent syphilis, and is also a cause of syphilis. The application of genetic diagnosis can now be quickly and accurately detected.
Why is syphilis infected?
Firstly, the common cause of syphilis is congenital inheritance, and recessive syphilis is found in voluntary blood donors.
At the same time, syphilis patients have Treponema pallidum in their skin and mucous membranes. If there is slight damage to the skin or mucous membranes during sexual contact with syphilis patients, they may fall ill. Few people can be infected through blood transfusion or other means. Acquired syphilis (acquired): Early syphilis patients are the source of infection, with 95% being infected through unclean sexual intercourse.
In addition, a small number of underwear, such as wet towels, tea cups, pipes, breastfeeding, and diapers, are infected through kissing, shaking hands, blood transfusions, and contact contamination. Fetal syphilis (congenital): Spirochetes in pregnant women usually infect infants through the placenta during the third to fourth months of pregnancy
1. Treponema pallidum, also known as Treponema pallidum, was discovered in 1905. In taxonomy, it belongs to spirochetes, treponema and treponema. Bacteria are slender, with 6-12 evenly arranged spirals, 5-20 spirals long, and an average of 6-10 transverse diameters of 0.15. Their upward and downward movements are slow and regular. Dyes commonly used in laboratories are not easy to stain. Bacteria can be observed with scotopic vision microscope or phase contrast microscope. Artificial cultivation in vitro is difficult, and inoculating rabbit testes can obtain spirochetes.
