An increase in the prevalence of syphilis in women in the eastern Bohemia - 30 year of surveillance
Original language description
The epidemiology of sexually transmitted infections in the Czech Republic has been carefully reported for many years. Here we present an analysis of regional data on syphilis spanning more than 30 years in eastern Bohemia. The epidemiological data were collected by the mandatory reporting of sexually transmitted disorders during the period 1981-2011. The data showed a minimal incidence of the cases in 1990 and an increasing trend thereafter. Two peaks in the incidence are apparent - within years 1995-1999 and 2003-2007. Interestingly, while before 1990 the numbers of positive men always exceeded those of women, within those two peaks these numbers equalize, or those of women even exceed the positive men. The results reflect trends in the changes withinthe society after 1989. The analysis shows that the regional prevalence of syphilis in the eastern Bohemia still remains at low level compared to some other regions in the Czech Republic.
