The article resumes the 2021 National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine report on the current state of STI management and prevention and provides recommendations for future public health programs, policy and research.Report From the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine – STI: Adopting a sexual health paradigm – a synopsis for sexually transmitted infection practitioners, clinicians, and researchers. Rietmeijer CA, Kissinger PJ, Guilamo-Ramos V et al. Papers of special note have been highlighted as: To our knowledge, this is the first report of TPA characterization in children, which underscore the importance of including molecular biology techniques in complex clinical scenarios such as these. When we compared the data, we observed that in four families, the child's strain coincided with the one found in close contact, while in one family, this could not be determined. In 16 individuals the presence of the bacterium genetic material was confirmed by molecular biology techniques, and in 12, its strain was analyzed. As a result, 18 infected persons were detected. A multidisciplinary study (epidemiological, clinical, social and molecular) was performed in six children from five families with clinical diagnosis of nonsexually transmitted syphilis. There are clinical reports of this route of transmissions in children however, there are no molecular characterizations of TPA in this population. Although it is considered a sexually transmitted disease, syphilis can also be transmitted by nonsexual close contact with active lesions. Syphilis is a disease caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum subsp.
