Introduction

Background of Standard Revision and Major Changes

Nature of the Standard Mandatory Recommended
Diagnostic Grading Undefined Grading Secondary Diagnosis (Suspected/Confirmed)
Laboratory Methods Histopathological Examination Newly Added Nucleic Acid Detection and Typing Identification

Analysis of core diagnostic elements

1. Clinical manifestations and stages

Early stage (3-30 days): Characteristic primary sores are characterized by small painless ulcers, which are more common in the genitals and perianal areas. Those with rectal infection may have mucus and blood in the stool.

Mid-stage (2-6 weeks): Typical buccaneerosis with groove sign, systemic symptoms such as fever, joint pain, etc.

Late stage (after 2 years): Irreversible damage such as rectal stenosis and fistula formation.


2. Laboratory examination techniques

Detection method Sensitivity Specificity Clinical significance
Microimmunofluorescence test Moderate High Antibody titer ≥1:512 has diagnostic value
Cell culture About 50% 100% Need to be combined with molecular typing to confirm L type
Nucleic acid detection >90% >95% Require omp1 genotyping

Implementation recommendations

  1. For suspected cases, MIF serology and nucleic acid testing should be combined to improve the detection rate
  2. Ultrasonic pretreatment is recommended for rectal specimens to reduce contamination
  3. Culture-positive specimens must be identified for L1-L3 serotypes
  4. Pay attention to differential diagnosis from syphilis chancre and genital herpes

Technology evolution analysis

The 2016 version of the standard reflects three major technological advances: ①Nucleic acid detection technology replaces traditional pathological examination; ②Optimization of the diagnostic grading system; ③Deletion of the treatment part to achieve separation of diagnosis and treatment. It is recommended that laboratories establish an omp1 gene sequencing platform to improve typing capabilities.
