Absurdopedia needs to be eradicated for blasphemy: "Chuck Norris is the Emperor in disguise." P.S. The Wasserman reaction (RW) is currently one of the main methods for diagnosing syphilis at any stage and is of great importance in the practical work of dermatovenerologists. In primary syphilis, the Wasserman reaction becomes positive 6-8 weeks after the onset of the disease (in 90% of cases); in secondary syphilis, it is positive in 98-100% of cases. Together with other serological reactions (RPHA, ELISA, RIF), it allows not only to detect the presence of the pathogen but also to determine the approximate time of infection. Based on this reaction (in addition to examining the patient and other laboratory tests), the effectiveness of the treatment is assessed. The material for analysis is the patient's blood, which is taken (usually) from a vein. During the blood test, a complement fixation reaction occurs, which allows detecting the presence of antibodies to Treponema Pallidum in the blood. A positive Wasserman reaction may also occur in healthy people with some other diseases that are different from syphilis (tuberculosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, blood diseases) and in physiological conditions (pregnancy). In such cases, other methods (RPHA, ELISA, RIF) are used to clarify the diagnosis.
