Abstract:
Objective To investigate the incidence of prozone phenomenon of rapid plasma reagin (RPR) test in syphilis serolog-ic testing and its correlation with the intensity of chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) results.Methods A total of 101493 patients in our hospital from January 2014 to December 2015 were performed syphilis serologic testing by CMIA ,RPR and treponema pallidum particle agglutination (TPPA).The incidence rate of prozone phenomenon in RPR testing was evaluated.Its in-fluencing factors were investigated by using the Logistic regression.Results Among 101493 serum samples ,2180 cases were posi-tive by CMIA and 767 cases were positive by RPR ,the incidence rate of prozone phenomenon was 3.3% (26/767)in RPR.The Lo-gistic regression results indicated that the incidence of prozone phenomenon was significantly correlated with CMIA S /CO values and RPR titer ,but had no correlation with sex ,age and seasonality.Conclusion Although the incidence of prozone phenomenon is low in syphilis serologic testing ,but it is enough important.The patients with higher S/CO value in CMIA test have a higher inci-dence rate of RPR prozone phenomenon.
