To describe the epidemiologic profile of congenital syphilis in Mexico between 1990 and 2009.
The database of the General Direction of Epidemiology at the Ministry of Health in Mexico about congenital syphilis was reviewed. Data corresponding to the period between 1990 and 2009 were analyzed in every state of the Mexican republic.
A total of 1717 cases of congenital syphilis were reported during the study period. A 16.6% increase was observed between 2005 and 2009 and the quinquennium between 2000 and 2004. A trend toward increase in the incidence of congenital syphilis was observed with 2.9 new cases for each 100,000 babies born alive. The states that displayed significant positive trends were as follows: Baja California, Colima, Chihuahua, Jalisco, Nayarit, Sinaloa, and Zacatecas.
An increase in the number of cases of congenital syphilis is observed; the northern states are the ones that contribute the most to the statistics. There is a real need to refine the epidemiologic operations to detect and treat the cases of maternal and congenital syphilis in the country.
描述 1990 年至 2009 年期间墨西哥先天性梅毒的流行病学特征。
对墨西哥卫生部流行病学总局的先天性梅毒数据库进行了审查。对墨西哥共和国每个州 1990 年至 2009 年期间的数据进行了分析。
在研究期间共报告了 1717 例先天性梅毒病例。2005 年至 2009 年期间观察到 16.6%的增长,2000 年至 2004 年的五年期间也观察到增长。先天性梅毒发病率呈上升趋势,每 10 万活产婴儿中有 2.9 例新发病例。显示出显著正趋势的州如下:下加利福尼亚州、科利马州、奇瓦瓦州、哈利斯科州、纳亚里特州、锡那罗亚州和萨卡特卡斯州。
观察到先天性梅毒病例数量增加;北部各州对统计数据的贡献最大。该国确实需要完善流行病学操作,以发现和治疗母婴先天性梅毒病例。
