Blood donation screening is an opportunity to monitor the burden of asymptomatic infections, providing information on contemporary factors associated with infection and public health insights into transmission.
Methods: Blood donations collected at five Brazilian blood centers between January 2020 and February 2022 were screened with treponemal or non-treponemal assays according to local protocols, followed by alternate Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA); samples with reactive or indeterminate results in the alternate ELISA were further tested with the rapid plasma reagin (RPR), and categorized as RPR-positive or RPR-negative.

Article Synopsis
- The study focused on evaluating the effectiveness of the Dimensional Clinical Personality Inventory 2 (IDCP-2) in identifying individuals with high levels of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) traits in a Brazilian community sample.
- The research involved 1,469 adults who completed various personality assessments, leading to the identification of three distinct profiles of BPD traits based on a specific model.
- The results indicated that IDCP-2 factors are quite effective in distinguishing BPD traits, with a recommended cutoff score of 22 to accurately identify those at high risk of BPD.
