AreactiveRPR test result is considered abnormal because antibodies were detected. This could either indicate a current syphilis infection, or the presence of a past infection that has been successfully treated. If an RPR test comes back as abnormal, a quantitative titer test will then be performed...

Perform quantitative RPR/VDRL testing for up to 2 years. Schedule annual follow-up visits for an indefinite period of time for patients with persistently positive serologic tests. The 2010 CDC STD treatment guidelines state that HIV-infected individuals with latent syphilis should receive the same st...
Diagnose using a nontreponemal (reaginic) test (eg, rapid plasma reagin [RPR] or Venereal Disease Research Laboratory [VDRL]), and confirm positive results using a treponemal antibody test. Treat with benzathine penicillin (Bicillin L-A) whenever possible, except that ocular syphilis, otic syphil...
Repeat quantitative nontreponemal test titers at 6 and 12 months after treatment (all patients) Expect a four-fold decrease in RPR or VDRL titers over subsequent 3-6 months following treatment Four-fold increase in titers over prior level suggests recurrent Syphilis and these patients should be re...
Lorne Labs supplies Syphilis detection latex kits and reagents including TPHA, VDRL and RPR. These Syphilis test kits identify the antibodies to the bacterium which causes syphilis in blood, fluid or tissue to help facilitate early detection and treatment of the disease....
The quantitative rapid plasma reagin (RPR) reaction of serum was positive (1:16). Cerebro- spinal fluid (CSF) pressure was not elevated during lumbar puncture. The CSF had an increased protein level of 0.93 g/L, normal WBCs (5 × 106/L) and normal glu- cose level (4.04 mmol/L). ...

Patienten mit Neurosyphilis ohne HIV-Infektion oder solche mit HIV-Infektion, die eine wirksame ART erhalten und nach der Behandlung ein serologisches (Normalisierung des Serum-RPR-Titers) und klinisches Ansprechen zeigen, benötigen keine wiederholten Liquoruntersuchungen. Bei HIV-infizierten Pa...
The diagnosis of ocular syphilis is complex, often requiring a multifaceted approach. Serological testing remains the cornerstone, with both non-treponemal (eg, RPR, VDRL) and treponemal-specific tests (eg, FTA-ABS, TP-PA) employed to confirm infection. However, the sensitivity and specificity of...
