Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Does a negative nontreponemal and/or specific antitreponemal IgM test exclude active infectious syphilis : evidence from a rabbit infectivity test : A case report?
Answer: The definitive differential diagnosis of active infectious syphilis should be reconsidered. Moreover, selecting the appropriate penicillin preparation is important because T pallidum can reside in sequestered sites. It is necessary to treat a patient with known invasion of the central nervous system with aqueous crystalline penicillin G, if previous treatment for syphilis failed and patients had some clinical neurological presentation that is otherwise unexplained, but that could represent neurosyphilis. Additional studies are needed to confirm the results in other syphilis patients.
Output (English): no
