Resumo: | The prevalence of syphilis in chronic alcoholics and the hepatic clinical and biochemical alterations were evaluated in patients with both entities. The prevalence of syphilis in patients with other psichyatric diagnosis was taken as control. The patients were asymptomatic or oligo-symptomatic with respect to hepatic alcoholic dysfunction or to any manifestation of the three clinical stages of syphilis. Alcoholics (206 patients) and patients with other psichyatric conditions (228 patients) were submitted to clinical examination and to quantitative serology for syphilis (Wasserman and VDRL), yielding 6.3% and 3.1% of seropo-sitivity, respectively. No statistically significant difference was observed between alcoholics of the seropositive or seronegative groups, as to the frequencies of clinical or biochemical alterations which would indicate hepatic alterations. |

Avalia-se a prevalência de sífilis em alcoolistas crônicos e as alterações hepáticas, clínicas e bioquímicas, em pacientes portadores de ambas entidades. A prevalência de sífilis em doentes com outros diagnósticos psiquiátricos foi tomada para comparação. Os pacientes eram assintomáticos ou oligossintomáticos com relação à disfunção hepática causada pelo alcoolismo e não apresentavam manifestações correspondentes aos estágios clínicos da sífilis. Duzentos e seis alcoolistas e 228 pacientes com distúrbios psiquiátricos foram submetidos a exame clínico e às reações sorológicas quantitativas de Wasserman e VDRL para diagnóstico de sífilis. Encontrou-se prevalência de soropositividade em 6,3% e 3,1% dos alcoolistas e doentes psiquiátricos, respectivamente. Nenhuma diferença estatisticamente significante foi observada entre os alcoolistas, com sorologias positivas e negativas para sífilis, quanto às frequências das manifestações clínicas e alterações bioquímicas indicativas de acometimento hepático.
