ObjectivesHuman papillomavirus (HPV) infections are common, especially during women’s reproductive years, with unclear obstetrical impact. This study aimed to identify HPV prevalence at mid-gestation and delivery, type-specific persistence from risk factors for infection persistence.MethodsIn 757 women a Scandinavian prospective mother–child cohort, was analyzed in first-void urine samples deli...

BACKGROUND Anal human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and its related diseases are relatively common in men who have sex with men (MSM), especially in those HIV positive. In China, molecular epidemiology of anal HPV infection among HIV-positive MSM has been sparsely studied. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted among HIV-positive MSM in Xi'an, China between April and July 2014. Anal s...

human papilloma virus (hpv) is considered as the main sexually transmitted etiological agent for the cause and progression of preneoplastic cervical lesions to cervical cancer. this study is discussing the prevalence of hpv and its genotypes in cervical lesions and invasive cervical cancer tissues and their association with various risk factors in women from varanasi and its adjoining areas in ...

OBJECTIVE Human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes and their relative prevalences were determined in a cohort of 310 sexually active women in Trinidad, West Indies. METHODS Cervical samples were collected with Ayre's spatulas and endocervical brushes. Samples were used for the conventional Papanicolaou test and for determining HPV genotypes by amplification of a section of the viral L1 gene, foll...

Background: Human papillomaviruses (HPV) are implicated in cervical cancer and, recently in oral cancer. In Mexico, there are few studies on oral cancer, therefore the interest in identifying the HPV frequency of low and high risk in samples of the oral and cervical cavities, and determining some risk factors. Objective: To determine the frequency of high and low risk HPV infection in the oral ...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the associations of TP53 R72P and MDM2 T309G SNPs with HPV infection status, HPV oncogenic risk and HIV infection status. DESIGN Cross-sectional study combining two groups (150 HIV-negative and 100 HIV-positive) of women. METHODS Data was collected using a closed questionnaire. DNA was extracted from cervical samples. HPV infection status was determined by nested-PC...

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is classified into high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) and (LR-HPV) according to their oncogenic potential. These viruses can be found in the cervix, vagina, vulva, anus ENT sphere. infections lead benign or malignant tumors which we could find both LR-HPV HR-HPV genotypes. The objective of this study was investigate genotypes archived tissue samples derived from ear, nose, throat...

BACKGROUND It is believed that Human Papillomavirus (HPV) and Human Immunodeficiency Virus coinfection contributes to increase the risk for cervical intraepithelial injuries. Several factors may contribute to cervical cancer (CC) development, including genetic variants such as TP53 and MDM2 gene polymorphisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS A hundred HIV-infected women were examined for HPV detection ...

The association between seropositivity to virus-like particles (VLP) of human papillomavirus (HPV) types 16, 18, 31, 35, or 45 and subsequent cervical HPV infection was examined in 829 women with HIV and 413 risk-matched HIV-negative women. We found no statistically significant differences between HPV-seropositive and HPV-seronegative women in the risk of a new infection with the homologous HPV...
