    The Co-occurrence of Intimate Partner Violence and Syphilis among Pregnant Women in Bolivia
    (Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., 2009) Claudia Dı́az-Olavarrieta; Kate Wilson; Sandra G. García; Rita Revollo; Kara Richmond; Francisco Paz; Lorena P. Chavez
    There is a significant association between history of partner violence and a positive syphilis test among pregnant women, suggesting that syphilis can be an important negative health consequence of IPV. Bolivia's new maternal and infant health program in antenatal clinics, which includes universal syphilis screening, should also provide screening and follow-up care for IPV.
