Resumo: Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease caused by Treponema pallidum. The infection is chronic and characterized by periods of intermittent latency, generating primary, secondary and tertiary stages of the disease. It is transmitted predominantly via sexual route, but vertical transmission, from a pregnant woman to the developing fetus or during childbirth, can occur. Parenteral transmission is also possible, however on a smaller scale. The present study aimed to contextualize T. pallidum infection and provide a descriptive epidemiological analysis of the distribution of cases of the disease in the state of Paraíba, in Brazil, according to age group, sex, education, race/ethnicity and cities with the highest concentration of confirmed cases. Between 2015 and 2021, a total of 6150 cases of acquired syphilis were reported. The year of 2019 concentrated the highest number of cases of the disease (1820), with 29.58%. Brown individuals were responsible for 3586 cases (58.31%), men comprised 4016 cases (65.30%), the age group 20-39 years had 3668 cases (59.64%), people with complete high school presented 825 cases, but there was a significant percentage of notifications as "ignored/blank", comprising 2928 cases in the variable "education" and significantly hindering the interpretation of data.

La infección es crónica y se caracteriza por períodos de latencia intermitente, generando estados primarios, secundarios y terciarios de la enfermedad. Esta enfermedad tiene una transmisión predominantemente sexual, pero puede transmitirse verticalmente, de una mujer embarazada al feto en desarrollo o durante el parto. La transmisión parenteral también es posible, aunque a menor escala. El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo contextualizar, con posterior análisis epidemiológico descriptivo de la distribución del número de casos de sífilis adquirida en el estado de Paraíba, en Brasil, presentando la distribución según grupo de edad, sexo, escolaridad, raza/etnia y municipios con mayor concentración del número de casos de la enfermedad. Entre 2015 y 2021 se notificaron un total de 6150 casos de sífilis adquirida. El año 2019 concentró el mayor número de casos de la enfermedad (1820), con un 29,58%. Los mestizos/etnia presentaron 3586 casos (58,31%), los hombres 4016 casos (65,30%), el grupo de edad de 20 a 39 años 3668 casos (59,64%), las personas con secundaria completa presentaron 825 casos, pero hubo un porcentaje significativo de notificaciones como "ignorado/en blanco", comprendiendo 2928 casos en la variable "educación" y dificultando significativamente la interpretación de los datos.A sífilis é uma doença sexualmente transmissível causada pela Treponema pallidum.

O presente trabalho teve por objetivo realizar uma contextualização, com posterior análise epidemiológica descritiva da distribuição do número de casos de sífilis adquirida no estado da Paraíba, no Brasil, apresentando a distribuição segundo a faixa etária, sexo, escolaridade, raça/etnia e municípios com maior concentração do número de casos da doença. Entre 2015 e 2021, foram notificados ao todo 6150 casos de sífilis adquirida. O ano de 2019 concentrou o maior número de casos da doença (1820), com 29,58%. Indivíduos de raça/etnia parda apresentaram 3586 casos (58,31%), homens compreenderam 4016 casos (65,30%), a faixa etária de 20-39 anos manifestou 3668 casos (59,64%), pessoas com ensino médio completo apresentaram 825 casos, porém houve um percentual expressivo de notificações como "ignorado/em branco", compreendendo 2928 casos na variável “escolaridade” e dificultando significativamente a interpretação de dados.Research, Society and Development2023-07-03info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/4244110.33448/rsd-v12i6.42441Research, Society and Development; Vol. 12 No. 6; e28512642441Research, Society and Development; Vol. 12 Núm. 6; e28512642441Research, Society and Development; v. 12 n. 6; e285126424412525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/42441/34263Copyright (c) 2023 Isaias Sena Moraes de Souza; Thiago Barbosa Benjamin de Lima; Silvana Câmara Torquato ; Hilce Santiago Loureiro ; Arthur Hennys Diniz Barbosa; Jhonatta Alexandre Brito Diashttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSouza, Isaias Sena Moraes de Lima, Thiago Barbosa Benjamin de Torquato , Silvana Câmara Loureiro , Hilce Santiago Barbosa, Arthur Hennys Diniz Dias, Jhonatta Alexandre Brito 2023-07-06T11:16:27Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/42441Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2023-07-06T11:16:27Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
