Abstract Objectives: to determine the incidence of the main high oncogenic risk types of the human papillomavirus (HPV) ( 16, 18, 31 and 33) and the risk factors for cervical adenocarcinoma. Methods: a case-control study was carried out with 324 women (69 with adenocarcinoma and 260 healthy controls) between 2001 and 2014. Information on risk factors associated with adenocarcinomawere collected and the detection performed on HPVby using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) method. Results: adenocarcinoma was associated with age ≥40 years old (OR=2.95; 95%CI=1.13-7.71), ≤3 years of schooling (OR=2.34; 95%CI=1.02-5.37), presence of HPV (OR=6.75; 95%CI=2.41-18.91),women in menopausal status (OR=4.76; 95%CI:1.70-13.31) black race (OR=6.71; 95%CI= 2.11-21.32) and never had undergone cervical cancer screening (OR=9.92; 95%CI:2.41-40.81). Andamong the HPV types detected, HPV 18 was observed to be strongly associated with adenocarcinoma of the cervix (OR=99.1; 95%CI=12.96-757.78). Conclusions: the factors associated with cervical adenocarcinoma were ≥40 years old, ≤3 years of schooling, black race, menopausal status, never had undergone cervical cancer screening and the presence of HPV.

Neste estudo avaliamos o papel do metabolismo do triptofano (Trp) na homeostasia, na vaginose bacteriana e nas lesões cervicais associadas ao HPV. A importância do metabolismo do Trp se deve a sua ação na proliferação de microrganismos e de células do sistema imune. O consumo de triptofano tem sido identificado como uma forma de controlar o crescimento bacteriano limitando a infecção. Por outro lado, a oxidação de Trp produz quinurenina (QUIN), que tem papel chave na tolerância imunológica. A formação de QUIN se dá através das enzimas indoleamina 2,3-dioxigenase (IDO) e triptofano 2,3- dioxigenase (TDO). A mais estudada delas no âmbito das infecções/ imuno escape é a enzima IDO. Mais recentemente, tem-se dado ênfase ao papel da TDO no câncer. Nesta dissertação, o interesse foi avaliar a expressão da IDO no epitélio cervicovaginal de mulheres com vaginose bacteriana e de IDO e TDO em amostras cervicais de mulheres com diferentes graus de lesão cervical associada ao HPV. Foram incluídas 165 mulheres atendidas no CAISM/UNICAMP, as quais foram divididas em dois grupos: grupo caso composto por mulheres com lesão de baixo ou alto grau e carcinoma invasor (n=42) e grupo controle composto por mulheres com citologia oncológica normal, independente de apresentar infecção genital (n=123). IDO foi avaliada por imunocitoquímica em citologia em base líquida e IDO e TDO em biópsias cervicais. Mulheres com vaginose bacteriana apresentaram expressão aumentada de IDO em células escamosas em comparação às mulheres sem vaginose bacteriana (OR=7.41; IC 95%= 2.50 a 21.4; p <0.0001). No epitélio vaginal normal com ou sem infecção por HPV houve uma expressão leve de IDO em células escamosas. Na presença de lesões ou carcinoma, houve um aumento no número de células escamosas displásicas e de leucócitos IDO-positivos; aumento de IDO também pôde ser observada em culturas de pele organotípicas transduzidas com as oncoproteínas E6/ E7 do HPV16. Nas lesões cervicais, assim como visto para a IDO, a TDO esteve expressa em leucócitos, especialmente os infiltrados na região estromal e na parede dos vasos sanguíneos. A expressão basal de IDO no epitélio cervical normal e sua regulação positiva na infecção por HPV e lesões associadas sugerem a participação do metabolismo do Trp nos mecanismos imunossupressores envolvidos na doença. Embora o papel do IDO já tenha sido abordada anteriormente, até onde sabemos esta é a primeira evidência da expressão de TDO no epitélio vaginal, na neoplasia intraepitelial cervical e carcinoma de células escamosas. Ainda, em leucócitos, especialmente aqueles com morfologia típica de polimorfonucleares, parecem ser importantes fontes de IDO na cérvix uterina
In this study we evaluated the role of tryptophan (Trp) metabolism in cervix homeostasis, bacterial vaginosis and HPV-associated lesions. The importance of Trp metabolism is due to its action on microorganisms and immune cells. Tryptophan consumption has been identified as a way to controlling bacterial growth limiting infection. On the other hand, the oxidation of Trp produces kynurenine (Kyn) which plays a key role in immunological tolerance. The formation of Kyn occurs through the enzymes indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO). IDO is the most studied of them within the context of infections / immune escape. More recently, TDO has also been considered in studies of cancer progression. In this thesis, we were interested in cervicovaginal epithelium IDO expression in women with bacterial vaginosis and of IDO and TDO in cervical samples of women with different degrees of cervical lesion associated with HPV. A total of 165 women attended at CAISM/UNICAMP were divided into two groups: a case group composed of women with low or high grade lesions and invasive carcinoma (n = 42) and a control group composed of women with normal cytology, independent to present genital infection (n =123). IDO was evaluated by immunocytochemistry in liquid-based cytology and IDO and TDO in cervical biopsies. Women with bacterial vaginosis had increased IDO expression in squamous cells compared to women without bacterial vaginosis (OR = 7.41, 95% CI = 2.50- 21.74; p<0.0001). In normal vaginal epithelium with or without HPV infection there was a mild IDO expression in squamous cells. In the presence of cervical intraepithelial lesions or squamous cell carcinoma, there was an increase in the number of IDO-positive dysplastic squamous cells and leukocytes; increase in IDO can also be observed in organotypic skin cultures transduced with HPV-16 E6/E7 oncoproteins. In cervical lesions, as observed for IDO, TDO was expressed in leukocytes, especially infiltrates in the stromal region and in the wall of blood vessels. The basal expression of IDO in the normal cervical epithelium and its positive regulation in HPV infection and associated lesions suggests the participation of Trp metabolism in the immunosuppressive mechanisms involved in the disease. Although some previous data have already considered the role of IDO, as far as we know this is the first evidence of the participation of TDO in the vaginal epithelium, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and squamous cell carcinoma. In addition, in leukocytes, especially those with a typical polymorphonuclear morphology, appear to be important sources of IDO in the uterine cervix

Abstract The aims of this study were to determine the incidence of external genital lesions (EGLs), specifically histologically confirmed condyloma (genital warts) and Penile Intraepithelial Neoplasia (PeIN), and genital HPV infection progression to EGLs among healthy men aged 18-73 residing in Brazil. Subjects included 1118 men enrolled in the HPV Infection in Men (HIM) study between July 2005 and June 2009. At each visit, EGLs were biopsied and subjected to pathological evaluation. HPV status in genital swabs and biopsies was determined by Linear Array and INNO-LiPA, respectively. Age-specific EGLs incidence and the proportion and median time to EGL development were estimated. Kaplan-Meier cumulative incidence rates at 6, 12, and 24 months were determined. During follow-up, 73 men developed an incident EGL. Men could develop multiple EGLs and there were 36 men with condyloma, 27 men with lesions suggestive of condyloma, six men with PeIN, and 20 men with non-HPV lesions. HPV-positive men who developed EGLs were younger (p = 0.002) than men that did not develop lesions. Among the 815 men with HPV infection, 4% progressed to EGL with the same HPV detected in the swab. During follow up, 15.7% of genital HPV-6 and HPV-11 infections progressed to condyloma (median progression time of nine months for HPV-6 versus 6.8 months for HPV-11). Approximately 1% of HPV-16 infections progressed to PeIN with a median progression time of 25 months. HPV types covered by the 4-valent HPV vaccine were detected in 82.3% and 83.3% of condyloma and PeIN, respectively. The high burden of HPV and high frequency of progression to disease underscores the need to offer HPV prophylactic vaccination to men to reduce the overall burden of infection and diseases caused by HPV.

ABSTRACT Background: Dai is a major Chinese ethnic minority group residing in rural areas of the southern part of Yunnan. However, no data exist on the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence and genotype distribution among Dai women. Method: A total of 793 participants (Dai = 324, Han = 251, other ethnic = 218) were included in this study. PCR was performed to detect the HPV-positive samples, and genotyping was performed with an HPV Geno-Array. Result: The overall HPV prevalence was very low among Dai women compared to the others. The prevalence of high-risk-HPV infections was significantly higher (p = 0.001) among other ethnic women (22.0%) than that among Han (13.1%) and Dai women (7.1%). The overall HPV, high-risk-HPV, single and multiple infection prevalence among rural women were 12.9%, 12.1%, 12.3%, and 0.5%, respectively. HPV-16 (5.5%) was shown to be the most prevalent genotype, followed by HPV-52 (2.6%) and HPV-58 (2.4%). Urban women had relatively higher rates of overall HPV (16.0%), high-risk-HPV (14.1%), single genotype (11.9%), and multiple genotype (4.1%) infections. In urban women, HPV-52 (3.6%) was the most prevalent genotype, followed by HPV-39 (2.7%) and HPV-16 (1.2%). In the urban area, HPV prevalence was highest in women aged <29 years, but declined with increasing age. However, in rural women, the highest HPV prevalence was observed among women at older age (>50 years). Education and smoking habit were significantly associated with HPV infection among both rural and urban area women (p < 0.001). Conclusion: The prevalence and genotype distribution of HPV varied among ethnic women in urban and rural area of Yunnan Province.

The influence of different infectious agents and their association with human papillomavirus (HPV) in cervical carcinogenesis have not been completely elucidated. This study describes the association between cytological changes in cervical epithelium and the detection of the most relevant aetiological agents of sexually transmitted diseases. Samples collected from 169 patients were evaluated by conventional cytology followed by molecular analysis to detect HPV DNA, Chlamydia trachomatis, herpes simplex virus 1 and 2,Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Mycoplasma genitalium, Trichomonas vaginalis, andTreponema pallidum, besides genotyping for most common high-risk HPV. An association between cytological lesions and different behavioural habits such as smoking and sedentariness was observed. Intraepithelial lesions were also associated with HPV and C. trachomatis detection. An association was also found between both simple and multiple genotype infection and cytological changes. The investigation of HPV and C. trachomatisproved its importance and may be considered in the future for including in screening programs, since these factors are linked to the early diagnosis of patients with precursor lesions of cervical cancer.

This study investigated the rate of human papillomavirus (HPV) persistence, associated risk factors, and predictors of cytological alteration outcomes in a cohort of human immunodeficiency virus-infected pregnant women over an 18-month period. HPV was typed through L1 gene sequencing in cervical smears collected during gestation and at 12 months after delivery. Outcomes were defined as nonpersistence (clearance of the HPV in the 2nd sample), re-infection (detection of different types of HPV in the 2 samples), and type-specific HPV persistence (the same HPV type found in both samples). An unfavourable cytological outcome was considered when the second exam showed progression to squamous intraepithelial lesion or high squamous intraepithelial lesion. Ninety patients were studied. HPV DNA persistence occurred in 50% of the cases composed of type-specific persistence (30%) or re-infection (20%). A low CD4+T-cell count at entry was a risk factor for type-specific, re-infection, or HPV DNA persistence. The odds ratio (OR) was almost three times higher in the type-specific group when compared with the re-infection group (OR = 2.8; 95% confidence interval: 0.43-22.79). Our findings show that bonafide (type-specific) HPV persistence is a stronger predictor for the development of cytological abnormalities, highlighting the need for HPV typing as opposed to HPV DNA testing in the clinical setting.

Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide, and the human papillomavirus (HPV) is the main causative agent for its development. HPV is a heterogeneous virus, and a persistent infection with a high-risk HPV contributes to the development of cancer. In recent decades, great advances have been made in understanding the molecular biology of HPV, and HPV\'s significance in cervical cancer prevention and management has received increased attention. In this review, we discuss the role of HPV genotyping in cervical cancer by addressing: clinically important issues in HPV virology; the current application of HPV genotyping in clinical medicine; and potential future uses for HPV genotyping.

ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps is a multifactorial disease entity with an unclear pathogenesis. Contradictory data exist in the literature on the potential implication of viral elements in adult patients with chronic rhinosinusitis. OBJECTIVE: To compare the prevalence of human herpes viruses (1-6) and Human Papilloma Virus in adult patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps and healthy controls. METHODS: Viral DNA presence was evaluated by real-time polymerase chain reaction application to nasal polyps specimens from 91 chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps patients and nasal turbinate mucosa from 38 healthy controls. RESULTS: Epstein-Barr virus positivity was higher in nasal polyps (24/91; 26.4%) versus controls (4/38; 10.5%), but the difference did not reach significance (p = 0.06). Human herpes virus-6 positivity was lower in nasal polyps (13/91; 14.29%) versus controls (10/38; 26.32%,p = 0.13). In chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps group, 1 sample was herpes simplex virus-1-positive (1/91; 1.1%), and another was cytomegalovirus-positive (1/91; 1.1%), versus none in controls. No sample was positive for herpes simplex virus-2, varicella-zoster virus, high-risk-human papilloma viruses (16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59) and low-risk-human papilloma viruses (6, 11). CONCLUSION: Differences in Epstein-Barr virus and human herpes virus-6 positivity among patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps and healthy controls are not statistically significant, weakening the likelihood of their implication in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps pathogenesis.
RESUMO INTRODUÇÃO: A rinossinusite crônica com pólipos é uma doença multifatorial de etiopatogênese ainda não definida. Existem dados contraditórios na literatura sobre a implicação potencial de elementos virais na etiologia de pólipos nasossinusais. OBJETIVO: Comparar a prevalência de herpes vírus humanos (1-6) e papiloma vírus humano em pacientes adultos com rinossinusite crônica com pólipos nasais (CRwNP) e controles saudáveis. MÉTODO: A presença de DNA viral foi avaliada por PCR em tempo real, em amostras de pólipos nasais de 91 pacientes com CRwNP e na mucosa das conchas nasais de 38 controles saudáveis. RESULTADOS: A positividade do EBV foi maior nos pólipos nasais (24/91; 26,4%) do que nos controles (4/38; 10,5%), mas a diferença não foi significante (p = 0,06). O HHV-6 apresentou positividade menor nos pólipos nasais (13/91; 14,29%) do que os controles (10/38; 26,32%), (p = 0,13). No grupo CRwNP, uma amostra foi positiva para o vírus herpes simples (HSV-1) (1/91; 1,1%), e uma para citomegalovírus (CMV) (1/91; 1,1%); e nenhuma amostra foi positiva no grupo controle. Não houve amostra positiva para HSV-2, VZV, HR-HPV (16,18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59) e LR-HPV (6,11). CONCLUSÃO: Diferenças de positividade do EBV e HHV-6 entre pacientes com CRwNP e controles saudáveis não são estatisticamente significantes, enfraquecendo a probabilidade de sua implicação na patogênese da CRwNP.

High-risk human papillomaviruses (HR-HPV) are considered necessary for the development of cervical cancer. Furthermore, there is no doubt that some types of oral squamous cell carcinoma are associated with HR-HPV. The epidemiology of oral HPV infections in healthy subjects remains unclear due to a lack of knowledge. The objective of this study was to investigate the epidemiology of human papillomavirus infections of the oral mucosa without pathology. A cross-sectional study was performed; samples from 390 women seeking prenatal care, Pap smears, family planning or gynecological diseases were studied. Oral cells were collected by direct swab sampling. Information regarding sociodemographic status, sexual behavior, infectious diseases, contraceptive history and tobacco and alcohol consumption were obtained through direct interviews. HPV and genotypes were detected by type-specific polymerase chain reaction. Our results revealed that 14% of the women studied had an oral HPV infection. Women ≤ 20 years of age had the highest HPV prevalence (24.5%). In total, seven genotypes were identified, including the high-risk genotypes 16, 18, 58 and 59 and the low-risk genotypes 6, 81 and 13, the latter of which is a type exclusive to oral mucosa. Sexual behavior was not associated with the presence of genital HPV types in the oral mucosa. Genital HPV types were present in the oral mucosa of women without associated clinical manifestations; however, sexual behavior was not associated with infection, and therefore others routes of transmission should be explored.

Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients have a greater prevalence of coinfection with human papillomavirus (HPV) is of high oncogenic risk. Indeed, the presence of the virus favours intraepithelial squamous cell lesion progression and may induce cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of HPV infection, distribution of HPV types and risk factors among HIV-positive patients. Cervical samples from 450 HIV-positive patients were analysed with regard to oncotic cytology, colposcopy and HPV presence and type by means of polymerase chain reaction and sequencing. The results were analysed by comparing demographic data and data relating to HPV and HIV infection. The prevalence of HPV was 47.5%. Among the HPV-positive samples, 59% included viral types of high oncogenic risk. Multivariate analysis showed an association between HPV infection and the presence of cytological alterations (p = 0.003), age greater than or equal to 35 years (p = 0.002), number of partners greater than three (p = 0.002), CD4+ lymphocyte count < 200/mm3 (p = 0.041) and alcohol abuse (p = 0.004). Although high-risk HPV was present in the majority of the lesions studied, the low frequency of HPV 16 (3.3%), low occurrence of cervical lesions and preserved immunological state in most of the HIV-positive patients were factors that may explain the low occurrence of precancerous cervical lesions in this population.

Oncogenic HPV genotypes are strongly associated with premalignant and malignant cervical lesion. The purpose was to determine human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence and genotypes, and to estimate cervical cancer risk factor associations. Cervical samples were obtained from 251 women seeking gynecological care at the Pelotas School of Medicine Clinic. This is a cross-sectional study. HPV-DNA was amplified by nested-PCR using MY09/11 and GP5/6 primers, and the sequencing was used for genotyping. Sociodemographic and behavioral risk factors were obtained by closed questionnaire, and its relationship to HPV infection prevalence were analyzed. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 16.0 software, and differences were considered significant at p < 0.05. As results, the prevalence of HPV infection was 29.9%. The most frequent genotype was HPV-16 (41.3%), followed by HPV-18 (17.3%), and HPV-33 (9.3%). Others nine HPV genotypes were also found. On this population, prevalence of oncogenic HPV genotypes was high, but does not seem to confer relationship with the risk factors investigated. Future investigations in larger populations are necessary, for the proposition of more appropriated monitoring strategies and treatment according to the Brazilian health service reality, as well as patients.

OBJECTIVES: to survey the prevalence of human papillomavirus, associated risk factors and genotype distribution in women who were referred to cervical cancer screening when attended in a Family Health Program. METHOD: we conducted a cross-sectional survey, investigating 351 women. Polymerase chain reaction for DNA amplification and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis were used to detect and typify the papillomavirus. RESULTS: virus infection was detected in 8.8% of the samples. Among the 21 different genotypes identified in this study, 14 were high risk for cervical cancer, and the type 16 was the most prevalent type. The infection was associated with women who had non-stable sexual partners. Low risk types were associated with younger women, while the high risk group was linked to altered cytology. CONCLUSION: in this sample attended a Family Health Program, we found a low rate of papillomavirus infection. Virus frequency was associated to sexual behavior. However, the broad range of genotypes detected deserves attention regarding the vaccine coverage, which includes only HPV prevalent types. .

Genotyping of human papillomavirus (HPV) by molecular methods may enhance assessment information for screening and following of cervical infection. In this study, cervical samples were obtained from 250 women, along with colposcopic and cytological evaluations. A Nested-PCR-Multiplex assay was used for HPV detection and genotyping for HPV E6/E7 early regions. Infection with HPV was detected in 26.0% of the samples, with 98.46% positive for at least one genotype. High-risk HPVs were identified in 98.44%. HPV18 infection was detected in 76.92% of samples and HPV16 in 36.92%, whether as individual or as multiple infections. These infections were seen more frequently in women under 35 years of age (64.7%). The Pap-smear examination showed that 16.92% (11/65) of the samples had cervical changes suggesting HPV infection, whereas the colposcopic evaluation was suggestive of HPV infection in 47.69% (31/65) of DNA-HPV positive samples. There was a high frequency of high-risk HPV genotypes, particularly HPV18, alone or in multiple-type infections. Colposcopy findings showed to have a high predictive value for the diagnosis of HPV infection. The results reflect that over 50% of HPV-positive patients had a normal colposcopy and/or cytology, highlighting the importance of including HPV testing along with genotype identification in routine gynecological evaluations.
La genotipificación de virus del papiloma humano (VPH) por métodos moleculares puede proveer información valiosa para el monitoreo y seguimiento de la infección cervical. Se estudiaron muestras cervicales obtenidas a partir de 250 mujeres, en quienes se realizó, simultáneamente, evaluación citológica y colposcópica. Un ensayo de PCR, en formato Nested-múltiple para las amplificación de la región temparana E6/E7, fue realizado para la detección y genotipificación viral. La infección por VPH se detectó en 26,0% de las muestras, de las cuales, un 98,46% fue positivo para al menos uno de los genotipos probados; los VPH de alto riesgo se identificaron en un 98,44%. Los genotipos más frecuentes fueron VPH18 con un 76,92%, y VPH16 con un 36,92%, ya sea como infecciones individuales o múltiples. En cuanto a la edad, estas infecciones fueron más frecuentes en mujeres menores de 35 años, con un 64,7%. Los resultados citológicos mostraron que 16,92% (11/65) de las muestras cervicales tenían cambios sugestivos de infección por VPH; mientras que la evaluación colposcópica fue sugestiva de la infección por VPH en 47,69% (31/65) de las muestras ADN-VPH positivas. Se determinó una elevada frecuencia de los genotipos de VPH de alto riesgo, particularmente VPH18, solo o en infecciones múltiples. Los hallazgos colposcópicos mostraron un elevado valor predictivo para el diagnóstico de la infección por VPH. Los resultados reflejan que más del 50% de las pacientes VPH positivas tenían colposcopía y/o citología normal, evidenciando la importancia de incluir las pruebas de detección e identificación de VPH en la evaluación ginecológica de rutina.

Introdução: O Papilomavírus Humano (HPV) é um agente epiteliotrópico que apresenta mais de 100 genótipos.Destes, alguns são considerados de alto risco devido ao potencial para induzir o surgimento de lesões malignas, comoo carcinoma cervical, cujo percentual de associação com o referido vírus é de aproximadamente 90%. Nas célulasinfectadas, duas proteínas virais desempenham papel fundamental na tumorigênese. Objetivo: Realizar uma revisão dos trabalhos existentes na literatura científica internacional com enfoque no papel das proteínas virais do HPV na carcinogênese. Método: Os artigos utilizados para a realização da presente revisão foram selecionados e obtidos na íntegra nos portais eletrônicos Pubmed e Periódicos Capes. Os descritores utilizados na busca incluíram: Human Papillomavirus, HPV, viral proteins, E5, E6 e E7. Resultados: As proteínas virais E6 e E7 são amplamente conhecidas por promoverem a degradação das proteínas celulares p53 e pRb, respectivamente, efeito que responde por grande parte do potencial oncogênico dos genótipos de alto risco de HPV, sendo funcionalmente equivalentes a mutações dos referidos genes celulares, que são comumente observadas em diversos tumores. Contudo, novos estudos têm demonstrado que essas proteínas virais também estão envolvidas em diversas outras vias tumorais, denotando novamente a relevância das mesmas nesse processo. Ademais, alguns trabalhos apontam a proteína E5 como coadjuvante na carcinogênese. Conclusão: Os diversos efeitos constatados das proteínas precoces virais culminam no favorecimentoda proliferação celular descontrolada, imortalização, regulação da diferenciação celular, suscetibilidade à metástase e escape da vigilância imunológica

Objective. Describe factors associated with aggressive forms of recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (RRP). Materials and methods. One hundred eighty-nine RRP cases diagnosed between 1985 and 2009 were identified in pathological records. HPV was detected by the SPF-10 method with broad spectrum primers, (version 1). Results. 113 patients had only one surgery (less aggressive) and 76, two or more interventions (more aggressive). The likelihood of aggressive lesions decreased with increasing age at diagnosis and HPV-11 was associated with no significant increase in the risk of aggressiveness. Conclusions. The age at diagnosis was the main determinant of RRP aggressiveness.

Cervical cancer is a major source of illness and death among women worldwide and genital infection with oncogenic human papillomavirus (HPV) its principal cause. There is evidence of the influence of the male factor in the development of cervical neoplasia. Nevertheless, the pathogenic processes of HPV in men are still poorly understood. It has been observed that different HPV types can be found among couples. The objective of the present study was to investigate HPV infections in female patients (n = 60 females/group) as well as in their sexual partners and to identify the concordance of HPV genotypes among them. By using the polymerase chain reaction, we detected a 95% prevalence of HPV DNA in women with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) compared to 18.3% in women with normal cervical epithelium, with a statistically significant difference (P < 0.001). The HPV DNA prevalence was 50% in male partners of women with CIN and 16.6% in partners of healthy women. In the control group (healthy women), only 9 couples were simultaneously infected with HPV, and only 22.2% of them had the same virus type, showing a weak agreement rate (kappa index = 0.2). Finally, we observed that HPV DNA was present in both partners in 30 couples if the women had CIN, and among them, 53.3% shared the same HPV type, showing moderate agreement, with a kappa index of 0.5. This finding supports the idea of circulation and recirculation of HPV among couples, perpetuating HPV in the sexually active population, rather than true recurrences of latent infections.

OBJECTIVE: To characterize the prevalence and distribution of genital human papillomavirus (HPV) types among women in Jamaica, and to explore risk factors associated with HPV infection. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study that took place in April-July 2010 with 852 sexually-active women, 16-49 years of age, who had attended a selected public or private primary health clinic in one of Jamaica's four health authority regions. Sociodemographic data was collected from each participant by trained study staff. Each participant had a gynecological examination that included a clinical Pap test and a cervical sample for HPV detection and typing-performed using the Research Use Only Linear Array (LA) genotyping assay (Roche Diagnostics Corp., Indianapolis, Indiana, United States). Overall and type-specific prevalence of HPV infection was calculated for 37 HPV types included in the LA genotyping assay. RESULTS: HPV DNA was detected in 460 of the 852 women (54.0%). Oncogenic HPV was detected in 297 women (34.9%) and HPV types 16/18 were found in 86 women (10.1%). The most frequently occurring HPV types were: 16 (6.2%); 35 (6.0%); 62 and 83 (5.5%); 61 and 58 (5.4%); 84 (4.7%); 18 (4.3%); and, 66 and 81 (4.2%). HPV prevalence was highest among women who were single, young (16-19 years), and had had more than three sexual partners in their lifetime. CONCLUSIONS: These results, coupled with high rates of cervical cancer, support introducing HPV vaccines while maintaining and strengthening cervical cancer screening services. Policy decisionmaking that reflects these results is instrumental to establishing a comprehensive cervical cancer program in Jamaica.
OBJETIVO: Determinar la prevalencia y la distribución de los tipos de virus de los papilomas humanos (VPH) genitales en las mujeres de Jamaica y explorar los factores de riesgo asociados con la infección por VPH. MÉTODOS: Este estudio transversal se llevó a cabo de abril a julio del 2010. Participaron 852 mujeres sexualmente activas, de 16 a 49 años de edad, que acudieron a uno de los consultorios públicos o privados de atención primaria seleccionados en cada una de las cuatro autoridades sanitarias regionales de Jamaica. Personal capacitado del estudio recopiló datos sociodemográficos de cada participante. Todas las participantes fueron sometidas a un examen ginecológico que comprendía una prueba clínica de Papanicolaou y la obtención de una muestra del cuello uterino a efectos de detectar y tipificarlos VPH mediante la prueba de genotipado Linear Array (LA) (Roche Diagnostics Corp., Indianápolis, Indiana, Estados Unidos), de uso exclusivo en investigación. Se calcularon las prevalencias global y específica de tipo de la infección por VPH para los 37 tipos de VPH incluidos en la prueba de genotipado LA. RESULTADOS: Se detectó ADN de VPH en 460 de las 852 mujeres (54,0%). Se detectaron VPH oncógenos en 297 mujeres (34,9%), y VPH de los tipos 16 y 18 en 86 mujeres (10,1%). Los tipos de VPH detectados con mayor frecuencia fueron 16 (6,2%), 35 (6,0%), 62 y 83 (5,5%), 61 y 58 (5,4%), 84 (4,7%), 18 (4,3%), y 66 y 81 (4,2%). La prevalencia de VPH fue más elevada en mujeres solteras, jóvenes (de 16 a 19 años) y que habían tenido más de tres compañeros sexuales en sus vidas. CONCLUSIONES: Estos resultados, junto a las elevadas tasas de cáncer cervicouterino, fundamentan la introducción de las vacunas contra el VPH al tiempo que se mantienen y refuerzan los servicios de tamizaje del cáncer cervicouterino. Las decisiones políticas que se adopten como consecuencia de estos resultados serán determinantes para establecer un programa integral contra el cáncer cervicouterino en Jamaica.
