Higher rates of syphilis lead to the emergence of atypical or less common manifestations like Follmann's balanitis. Follmann's balanitis is an atypical presentation of primary syphilis characterized as erythematous, erosive lesions on the glans penis.MethodsThe aim of the study is to describe the cases of the Follmann 's diagnosed in Vall d'Hebron-Drassanes STI Unit over 20 years (2003-2023). Retrospectively, the epidemiological, clinical and microbiological data were collected.ResultsIn total 20 cases of Follmann's balanitis were diagnosed. The clinical presentation was heterogeneous, with erosive balanitis being the most frequent presentation. Fifteen per cent had also a chancre and 50% presented with lymphadenopathy. Dark field microscopy and Treponema pallidum NAAT were positive in 41% and 92% respectively, and the median RPR titre was 1/4 (IQR 1/2-1/16).ConclusionsFollmann's balanitis is a rare presentation of primary syphilis which has to be suspected in case of erosive balanitis, especially in key populations as MSM or persons with previous STIs, where syphilis is more frequent.","PeriodicalId":14408,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of STD & AIDS","volume":" ","pages":"700-704"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144019842","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We also examined whether sociodemographic factors moderated associations between APOE ε4 carrier status and MMSE scores.MethodsA secondary analysis of cognitive, psychological, and sociodemographic data from the Miami Adult Studies on HIV (MASH) cohort (n = 493) was completed. Banked blood samples underwent APOE genotyping. Bivariate analyses examined potential differences across participants by HIV and/or HCV statuses and by APOE ε4 carrier status. Multiple linear regression was conducted to test the adjusted moderation effect of each sociodemographic variable between APOE ε4 carrier status and MMSE scores within each group.ResultsSociodemographic factors, such as income, education, food insecurity, and employment influenced associations between APOE ε4 carrier status and MMSE scores among participants with HIV/HCV. Participants with APOE ε4 genotypes living with HCV had higher MMSE scores than non-APOE ε4 carriers.ConclusionThese results reinforce the need for future studies examining (1) the impact of APOE genotype on cognitive functioning while considering socioeconomic factors and (2) the influence of socioeconomic factors on cognitive scores among individuals living with HIV and or HCV.","PeriodicalId":14408,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of STD & AIDS","volume":" ","pages":"719-730"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144173405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During hospitalization, he developed atypical genital ulcers and persistent pancytopenia. Bone marrow examination revealed amastigotes consistent with Leishmania spp., indicating concurrent visceral and mucocutaneous leishmaniasis. Treatment with liposomal amphotericin B followed by miltefosine resulted in clinical improvement of the genital ulcers. This case highlights the atypical presentation of leishmaniasis in a patient living with HIV, deviating from classic descriptions and underscoring the diagnostic challenges. The presence of Leishmania amastigotes in the bone marrow, coupled with unusual cutaneous manifestations, emphasizes the need for a high index of suspicion for opportunistic infections in patients living with HIV/AIDS with unexplained findings, even without a history of travel to endemic areas. Timely diagnosis through bone marrow examination and appropriate multi-drug therapy are crucial for managing such complex co-infections.","PeriodicalId":14408,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of STD & AIDS","volume":" ","pages":"734-737"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144136230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aimed to identify the impact of antenatal sexually transmitted infections and bacterial vaginosis on preterm birth in PLWH.MethodsWe completed a population-based cohort study using the British Columbia Perinatal HIV Surveillance Database, capturing all births in PLWH from January 1997 to December 2022. Univariate risk factors for preterm birth were identified using chi-squared tests, Fisher's exact tests and t-tests, followed by a multivariate logistic regression analysis.ResultsOf 578 singleton pregnancies, 111 (19.2%) had preterm births, of which 34 (31%) delivered before 34 weeks gestational age. In our population, 11% were identified with a sexually transmitted infection or bacterial vaginosis (STIBV) in pregnancy. The preterm birth rate in PLWH with antenatal STIBV was 37% compared to 17% in PLWH without STIBV (OR: 2.18; 95% CI (1.50 - 3.16); p = .0003). Preterm deliveries were more common in individuals with concurrent Hepatitis C (OR: 2.42; p < .0001), antenatal diagnosis of Chlamydia trachomatis (OR 2.17; p = .036), Trichomonas vaginalis (OR: 2.78; p < .001) and bacterial vaginosis (OR: 2.15; p = .003). After adjusting for ethnicity, history of preterm birth, substance use, concurrent Hepatitis C, CD4 count and viral suppression at delivery, STIBV remains an independent risk factor (OR: 2.09; 95% CI: 1.04 - 4.19; p = .039).ConclusionAmong PLWH, antenatal screening for sexually transmitted infections and bacterial vaginosis can identify individuals at the highest risk of preterm birth.","PeriodicalId":14408,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of STD & AIDS","volume":" ","pages":"712-718"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12301519/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144186988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The cumulative incidence was estimated along with its 95% confidence interval. Pearson's chi-square test, Fisher's exact test, and relative risk calculations were used to identify associated factors.ResultsThe HIV incidence was 9.1 per 10,000 donors (95% CI: 5.0-13.2). Subgroups with the highest incidence per 10,000 donors included those recruited through mobile blood drives (12.3), individuals under 40 years of age (12.0), men (11.3), and altruistic donors (10.6).ConclusionA relatively low number of new HIV cases was found among repeat donors. However, the identification of subgroups with higher incidence is critical for developing targeted strategies to ensure the safety of these priority populations and to enhance active epidemiological surveillance systems for HIV in the general population.","PeriodicalId":14408,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of STD & AIDS","volume":" ","pages":"9564624251363460"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-07-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144742138","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
