RESUMO
Introduction: Papillomas are associated with human papillomaviruses (HPV) and are commonly benign. Typically, the clinical presentation establishes the diagnosis, and treatment comprises excision and histological analysis. Objective: In light of our series of 39 patients with viral papillomas of the oral mucosa, we would like to express our concerns regarding the treatment of patients diagnosed with HPV 6 and 11-positive oral papillomas. Materials and Methods: The research is based on an analysis of 39 patients with oral papillomas who underwent conventional HPV viral testing. The analysis was conducted utilizing the in situ hybridization method. Patients tested positive for HPV subtypes 2, 4, 6, 11, 16, 18, 31, 33, and 51. More than fifty percent of individuals tested positive for HPV 6 and 11. Conclusion: HPV subtypes have been identified in lesions with comparable clinical presentation. Many of our patients carry the HPV subtypes 6 and 11, which have been associated to sexual transmission. However, more transmission routes are also possible. The ideal treatment for us would be a referral to a Venereologist for a thorough sexually transmitted illness examination.
RESUMO
Ceratitis FAR is an African species complex comprising insect pests of great economic interest and obscure species limits. Here, we report the mitochondrial genomes of two members of the FAR complex, namely Ceratitis rosa and the recently characterized Ceratitis quilicii. A phylogenetic analysis based on PCGs of available Tephritidae mitogenomes is presented. The current mitochondrial sequences from the FAR complex could contribute toward the resolution of phylogenetic relationships and species limits within this taxonomically challenging group, which is also an important issue for the development of environment-friendly and species-specific control methods, such as the sterile insect technique (SIT).
