Description
Lausten-Thomsen and seven co-authors track congenital syphilis in Denmark, in work from twenty twenty-six. Congenital syphilis passes from mother to baby and can seriously harm the newborn, yet it is preventable with screening and treatment. Several European countries report rising trends.
Nationwide registers linked by personal numbers covered twenty ten to twenty twenty-four. Incidence and time trends of congenital cases were assessed, along with how many pregnancies had active syphilis. Register data capture every case, not a sample, so the national picture is exact. The study tests whether Denmark is on track for elimination.
