pubmed:abstractText |
AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases are interlinked. VDRL positivity may indicate that the individual has an increased risk of being HIV positive as the epidemiological risk factors for developing syphilis and AIDS are similar. We analysed 323 (5.8%) VDRL positive serum samples (out of 5592 screened) for HIV positivity. All were HIV negative. While syphilitic infection in India at present is not commonly associated with HIV infection, experience in other countries indicates caution.
