The associations between human papilloma viruse persistent infection and Stathmin-1 expression and the clinical significance in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia / 中国医师进修杂志

Objective To explore the relationship between Stathmin-1 and human papilloma viruse (HPV) persistent infection after conization of uterine cervix, and to show the clinical significance to recurrent of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). Methods One hundred and six patients who were treated with conization of uterine cervix for CIN 2-3 grades were enrolled. Thirty-six recurrent patients were enrolled in recurrence group, and the others were enrolled in control group. The expression of Stathmin-1 in primary CIN tissues in two groups was detected by immunohistochemistry. The HPV infection was detected by HPV-DNA test. The relationship of HPV persistent infection and recurrence was analyzed. Results The positive expression rate of HPV persistent infection and HPV persistent infection rate in recurrence group were 88.89%(32/36), 83.33%(30/36), in control group were 34.29%(24/70) and 22.86%(16/70), and there were significant difference (P 0.05). Conclusions Stathmin-1 positive expression is related to HPV persistent infection. The two factors can affect the prognosis of high-grade CIN, and can provide new cues and theory basis for the prevention of recurrence.

Effect of circumcision in reducing high-risk human papilloma virus infection / 中国综合临床

Objective To understand the effect of circumcision in reducing high-risk human papilloma virus (HPV) infection in male adults. Methods One hundred and twenty-eight married adults with phimosis who underwent circumcision enrolled in the case group and high-risk HPV of urethral discharge specimens were detected before and 2 years after operation. A total of 128 cases of phimosis without circumcision were recruited in the control group. High-risk HPV infection rates were compared between the two groups. Results The highrisk HPV infection rates in the two groups were comparable at baseline. In the circumcision group, high-risk HPV infection rate was 27. 3% preoperative and it significantly decreased to 12.5% two years after operation( x2 =8. 839 ,P =0. 005). In the control group,high risk HPV infection rate was 28. 1% at baseline and it was 25.0%two years later, with no significant difference (x2 =0.320,P = 0.671).Conclusion Circumcision can significantly reduce high-risk HPV infection. Promoting circumcision actively in our country may have an important role in preventing high-risk HPV infection.
