PROGNOSIS AND TREATMENT

Abstract

nulliparae showed 63 per cent. asymptomatic, 29 per cent. parel-lchymatous, and 8 per cent. meningovascular neurosyphilis; multipare showed 54 per cent. asymptomatic, 38 per cent. parenchymatous, and 8 per cent. meningovascular neurosyphilis. Wl hen arranged in the age groupinigs the nullipare showed a preponderance of cases in the third decade (ages 20 to 29) and a very snmall percentage after 40 years of age. In contrast, the miales and niultiparae showed the peak in the fourth decade (ages 30 to 39) with a much higher incidence after this period than in the case of the nulliparte. A detailed analysis of the iincidence of each clinical type in each age grouping is shown in tables. R. G. G.
