HPV infection and HIV acquisition in women. Averbach[], Low[] and Smith-McCune[] et al increased risk of HIV acquisition associated with infection with any HPV genotype compared to no HPV infection in women.The point estimate from all three were consistent with a harmful effect of HPV infection (aHR=1.71, aHR=2.40 and aHR=2.26 respectively) although the association was only statistically ...
16 lis 2020 · Globally, an estimated 33 000 (95% CI 26 000–42 000) new cases of cervical cancer occurred among women living with HIV, corresponding to 5·8% (95% CI 4·6–7·3) of 569 847 cases of cervical cancer in the year 2018 (table).
17 lut 2023 · HPV and HIV are different sexually transmitted infections caused by viruses. A person with HIV may be more prone to contracting HPV and experience worse complications. Learn more here.
Herein, the main epidemiological features and clinical implications of HIV and HPV coinfection are reviewed, focusing mainly on the relationship between HIV immune status and HPV-related diseases and the current strategies used to reduce the burden of HPV-related disease.
The ability of HPV to establish a chronic infection within the genital mucosal epithelium has implications on HIV acquisition risk and prevention strategies, and remains an area of active research, in particular with novel therapeutic vaccines reaching trial stages in 2021 (Ayesha et al., 2021).
22 kwi 2020 · The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified both human papillomavirus (HPV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1 as carcinogens [1], and studies demonstrated that HPV is a direct carcinogen and HIV-1 is an indirect carcinogen through immune suppression [1].
18 maj 2022 · The molecular interactions between HIV and HPV, as well as the interplay between both viruses and the immune system, are increasingly being understood. The immune dysfunction induced by HIV infection impairs the rate of HPV clearance and increases its oncogenic risk.
