Background: Syphilis and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections are similarly transmitted and commonly coexist. HIV affects the natural history, clinical manifestations, and treatment response to syphilis. The study goal was to determine the risk factors associated with a positive anti-Treponema pallidum antibody test in HIV-infected patients.

Methods: A case-control study was conducted from August to December 2014 in an infectious diseases care hospital in Mexico City. Cases were males over 18 years, with HIV diagnosis and positive for syphilis antibodies. Controls were similar except with a negative syphilis antibodies test. All patients provided characteristics and medical records were accessed.
