Summary

This study tested a fast, simple test that checks for both HIV and syphilis at the same time in pregnant women in Guatemala. The goal was to see if using this test would help more women get screened and treated during pregnancy, which could prevent passing these infections to their babies. The study also used ultrasound to check for signs of syphilis in the fetus.
