ABSTRACT

Longitudinal data from a case series indicated that clearance rates (95% CIs) of anogenital warts (AGW) by silver nitrate (n = 14) and podophyllin (n = 34) were 93% (79.35, 100) and 14.7% (3, 27) respectively; and RR, 6.31 (95% CI 2.77, 14.37, p = 0.0(5)2), relative benefit increase, 532% (410, 654), and NNT, 1 (1, 2). The total effort needed US$28(BB$56) vs US$598 in 1-3 vs 1-37 visits to achieve one successfully treated patient respectively. While subject to the errors of an open, non-randomized case series, silver nitrate was highly efficacious and cost-effective and should replace podophyllin at the Winston Scot Polyclinic.


Datos longitudinales de una serie de casos indicaron que las tasas de eliminación (95% CI) de verrugas anogenitales (VAG) mediante nitrato de plata (n = 14) y podofilina (n = 34) fueron 93% (79.35, 100); y 14.7% (3, 27) respectivamente; y RR, 6.31 (95% CI 2.77, 14.37, p = 0.0(5)2), aumento relativo de beneficios, 532% (410, 654), y NNT, 1 (1, 2). El esfuerzo total necesitó $28 USD (BB$56) vs $598 USD en 1-3 vs 1-37 visitas para lograr un paciente tratado con éxito respectivamente. Aunque sujeto a los errores de una serie de casos abierta no aleatorizada, el nitrato de plato fue altamente eficaz y costo-efectivo y debe reemplazar la podofilina en Winston Scot Polyclinic.
