A study of frequency of treponematosis among pregnant women in Mother Hood of Zogbo (Cotonou) shows 5.1 +/- 2.8% of positivity with risk of 5% by TPHA and VDRL. The low level of endemicity, associated with the absence of cutaneous lesions of treponematosis in Cotonou may correspond to a syphilis infection. This study points out the necessity to strengthen the struggle against the all other sexually transmitted diseases (MST) in the same way that the HIV infection in Benin.
对佐博（科托努）“母亲之家”孕妇梅毒感染率的一项研究显示，梅毒螺旋体血清学阳性率为5.1±2.8%，梅毒螺旋体血细胞凝集试验（TPHA）和性病研究实验室试验（VDRL）检测风险为5%。科托努地区梅毒地方病流行程度较低，且无梅毒螺旋体病皮肤损害，这可能意味着梅毒感染。本研究指出，与贝宁的艾滋病毒感染情况一样，有必要加强防治所有其他性传播疾病（STD）的工作。
