high prevalence of genital tract papillomavirus infection in female adolescents. | to investigate clinical condyloma, abnormal cervical cytologic findings, and evidence of human papillomavirus infections, 89 adolescent girls were examined. cellular dnas extracted from exfoliated cervical cells were examined for human papillomavirus genomic sequences by southern transfer hybridization using 32p-labeled human papillomavirus dna probes. human papillomavirus sequences were detected in 12 (13%) young women, abnormal cytologic specimens in 21 (24%), and vulvar condylomas in 12 (13%) ... | 1988 | 2845351 |
human papillomaviruses in women with a history of abnormal papanicolaou smears and in their male partners. | human papillomavirus infection of the genital tract was identified by the filter in situ hybridization test. exfoliated cervical cells were tested separately for the prevalence of human papillomavirus 6/11 and 16/18. human papillomavirus deoxyribonucleic acid (dna) was identified in 70 and 92% of specimens of u.s. and west german women, respectively, who showed concurrent cytologic and colposcopic abnormalities, and in 50 and 54% of women, respectively, who showed neither cytologic nor colposcop ... | 1987 | 3029642 |
sexually transmitted diseases in college men: a preliminary clinical investigation. | continuing efforts to educate college students about the dangers of unprotected sexual intercourse have resulted in little evidence of positive change in sexual behavior. this clinical study examined the sexual behavior, perceived risk of human immunodeficiency virus, and pathology of 66 university men attending a health center's men's clinic for treatment of sexually transmitted disease (std). the study demonstrated the existence of a high-risk group of men who, despite sexually transmitted dis ... | 1993 | 8288833 |

real-time quantitative pcr demonstrates low prevalence of human papillomavirus type 16 in premalignant and malignant lesions of the oral cavity. | human papillomavirus (hpv) type-16 has been associated with invasive squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. this study examines the role of hpv-16 in the progression of oral head and neck cancer by determining the quantity of hpv-16 dna in premalignant and malignant lesions, using real-time quantitative pcr, to more accurately determine the role of hpv-16 in oral head and neck squamous cell carcinogenesis. | 2002 | 12006539 |
cryotherapy for treatment of anogenital warts. | human papillomavirus is a group of viruses that produce anogenital warts for which there is no cure. untreated anogenital warts can spread and form large clusters that are bothersome, painful, and embarrassing to the patient as well as being a significant health risk. one of the infectious disease clinics of the authors' hospital sees an average of 200 hiv-positive individuals per month. approximately 10% of these patients have anogenital warts. the attending physicians asked the clinical nursin ... | 2004 | 15538018 |

epidemiologic analysis of histologic cervical inflammation: relationship to human papillomavirus infections. | infections with carcinogenic human papillomaviruses, the causal agents of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cancer, as well as infections with noncarcinogenic human papillomaviruses, are common but typically resolve spontaneously. effective cell-mediated immune responses are critical for human papillomavirus clearance; however, data relating cervical inflammation to the outcome of human papillomavirus infection are lacking. to investigate this topic, we performed a masked parallel review of ... | 2008 | 18495212 |
basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck is a mixed variant that can be further resolved by hpv status. | basaloid squamous cell carcinoma (bscc) of the head and neck is set apart as a distinct subtype of squamous cell carcinoma on the basis of its basaloid appearance and aggressive behavior. the purpose of this study was to determine whether bscc could be further subdivided on the basis of human papillomavirus 16 (hpv16) status. hpv16 in situ hybridization was performed on 53 bsccs of the head and neck. of the 53 bsccs, 21 (40%) arose in the oropharynx and 32 (60%) arose in nonoropharyngeal sites. ... | 2008 | 18496144 |
correlates of cervicovaginal human papillomavirus detection in perimenopausal women. | the aim of this research was to determine correlates of prevalent cervicovaginal human papillomavirus (hpv) infection in perimenopausal women. | 2009 | 19702476 |
emergence of hpv16-positive oropharyngeal cancer in black patients over time: university of maryland 1992-2007. | while we previously reported a striking racial difference in the prevalence of human papilloma virus (hpv)-positive squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx (opscc), less is known about differences in outcomes and trends over time in opscc by hpv status and race. we conducted a retrospective analysis of 467 patients with opscc treated at the university of maryland greenebaum cancer center (baltimore, md) between 1992 and 2007, of which 200 had tissue available for hpv16 testing. hpv16-positive ... | 2015 | 24916537 |
