matters needing attention

It is a non-specific Syphilis Serological Test, which is often used for early diagnosis of syphilis, but it is not sensitive to latent syphilis and neurosyphilis. TPHA has high sensitivity and specificity in detecting specific Treponema pallidum antibody in serum. Once the test is positive, no matter whether the disease is active or not, it usually remains positive for life. The change of its titer has nothing to do with whether the syphilis is active or not. Therefore, it can not be used as an index to evaluate the curative effect or determine the recurrence and reinfection, but can only be used as a confirmation test of syphilis.
