HPV, or human papillomavirus, is a group of over 100 viruses that can infect the skin or mucosa. Certain HPV strains can cause warts, while others are associated with cancer. Low-risk HPV types can cause common warts or genital warts, while high-risk HPV types can lead to cancerous and precancerous lesions in the anogenital area and other sites like the oral cavity. HPV is very common and often clears without symptoms, but persistent high-risk infections can progress to cancer over many years if left untreated.

HPV (human papillomavirus) is a virus that can cause genital warts and cervical cancer. There are over 100 strains of HPV, with only about 1% causing genital warts. HPV is very common, with about 1 million new cases of genital warts in the US each year. The virus often has no symptoms, so annual pap smears are important for women. Vaccination with Gardasil can help prevent infection from the HPV strains known to cause cancer and genital warts. While condoms provide some protection, HPV can still be transmitted due to skin-to-skin contact. Ignoring the risks of HPV could allow for reinfection or development of cancers.

HPV
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted infection. There are over 100 types of HPV, most of which do not cause health problems. However, some "high risk" types can cause cancer of the cervix, anus, and other genital areas. HPV is transmitted through skin-to-skin sexual contact and affects the genital and anal areas. While condoms provide some protection, they do not cover all infected areas. Regular pap testing can detect abnormal cell changes, and vaccination protects against certain high risk cancer-causing types.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) refers to a group of viruses that are commonly transmitted through sexual contact and can cause genital warts or cervical cancer. While most HPV infections cause no symptoms and resolve on their own, regular screening is important for detecting high-risk strains that could lead to cervical cancer if left untreated. Vaccines exist to help prevent HPV transmission but there is currently no cure once infected.
HPV
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a DNA virus that infects epithelial cells and can cause cervical cancer. There are over 100 strains of HPV, with about 30 having the potential to transform cells and cause cancer. HPV is the most common sexually transmitted infection in the US, transmitted through unprotected sex. While most HPV infections clear on their own, persistent infections can lead to precancerous lesions and cervical cancer over time if left untreated. Diagnosis is usually based on abnormal Pap test results, and vaccination prior to sexual activity provides 90-95% protection against the HPV strains most likely to cause cancer.

1) Anal cancer risk is greatly increased in people with HIV, especially gay and bisexual men with HIV who are at around 100 times higher risk compared to the general population.
2) HPV vaccination is recommended for those under 26 to prevent anal cancer and precancers, but there is no evidence of benefit in older populations.
3) If anal cancer precancers are found, there is no evidence that screening or treatment improves outcomes and treatments have very high failure rates.
4) An annual digital anal exam is recommended for MSM over 50 with HIV to aid early detection of anal cancer.Hpv vaccine
HPV (human papillomavirus) is extremely common, with 80% of sexually active people contracting a strain at some point. It causes various cancers and genital warts. While most HPV infections clear on their own, persistent infections increase cancer risk. Vaccines target high-risk HPV strains responsible for 70% of cervical cancers. They provide sustained, high-level immunity for at least 4.5 years with minimal side effects. Screening and vaccination can significantly reduce HPV-related cancers globally.

The document discusses human papilloma virus (HPV) including the virus itself, associated diseases, transmission, epidemiology, clinical manifestations, carcinogenic properties, vaccination, and treatment options. HPV is a common virus that can cause genital warts and various cancers like cervical cancer. Vaccination provides high efficacy against HPV types known to cause cancer and genital warts. Treatment depends on the manifestation but may include cryotherapy, laser ablation, or topical medications.
HPV and Cervical Cancer
Cervical cancer is a major health problem, but HPV vaccination and screening can reduce rates. HPV is transmitted sexually and can cause cervical cancer. The vaccine protects against high-risk HPV types 16 and 18, which cause most cancers. Northern Ireland has high HPV vaccination rates. While the vaccine reduces cancer risk, screening is still needed since the vaccine does not protect against all HPV types and cannot help women already infected. In the future, screening may shift to HPV testing as prevalence decreases due to vaccination.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted infection. There are over 100 varieties of HPV, more than 40 of which can be transmitted sexually and can affect the genitals, mouth, or throat. While many HPV infections cause no symptoms and resolve on their own, some HPV types can cause genital warts and cancers such as cervical, anal, and throat cancers. Regular screening is important for detecting cell changes that may develop due to HPV infection. There is currently no approved test or treatment for HPV in men, but vaccination is recommended for both boys and girls to help prevent HPV infection and related health problems.
Human Papilloma Virus
HPV can cause cervical and other cancers, including cancer of the vulva, vagina, penis, or anus. It can also cause cancer in the back of the throat (called oropharyngeal cancer). This can include the base of the tongue and tonsils. Cancer often takes years, even decades, to develop after a person gets HPV.

Ginseng And Cervical Cancer
The cervix is located at the lower end of the uterus where it joins the vagina. Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women worldwide and is often caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Symptoms may include abnormal vaginal bleeding or no symptoms until advanced stages. Prevention methods include HPV vaccination, condom use, pap smears, and maintaining a healthy diet. Studies have shown that compounds in ginseng, such as ginsenosides, may have anti-tumor effects and help control metastasis, inhibit cancer cell invasion and proliferation, and demonstrate preventative effects against cervical cancer.

There are over 120 HPV types, with high-risk types like 16 and 18 able to cause cancers such as cervical cancer while low-risk types cause genital warts. HPV is very common and easily transmitted through skin-to-skin contact, with over 75% of individuals having an HPV infection at some point in their lives. While condoms provide some protection, HPV transmission is still possible due to infection sites beyond the areas covered.
Basics To Ca Cx Screening (Eastern Biotech)
Detecting HPV means better understanding of the risk of cervical cancer was the major focus of Dr. Dinesh Gupta. He spoke on “Opportunistic Screening for Cervical Precancer Lesions” and informed why the combination screening is vital for prevention and detection of cervical cancer. According to Dr. Gupta, combined screening with liquid based cytology and hybrid capture2 HPV DNA test would identify who’s at risk for high-grade disease and cancer and reduce missed disease caused by false-negative Pap Smear. HPV DNA test is the only FDA approved test to detect 13 high risk HPVs associated with virtually all cervical cancer, he added.

What is cancer of cervix and how it occurs?
Cancer of the cervix, also the mouth of uterus or the lower most part of womb (where baby grows), Is easily accessible for examination by the gynecologist per vaginal examination. Cancer of cervix is probably caused by high risk strains of the human papilloma-virus (16,18,31,45 etc), a common sexually transmitted infection. In more than 90 percent of the infections, HPV clears up on its own, but in 10 percent of cases either cancer or genital warts develops. Multiple sex partners increases risk of HPV infection and the more partners the current partner has had, the higher is the risk that he will transmit HPV. Sexual and reproductive factors, socio-economic factors (education and income), viruses e.g., herpes simplex virus (HSV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and other factors like smoking, diet, oral contraceptives are other important high risk cofactors in cervical carcinogenesis. Early age of marriage and early child bearing are contributing factor in our country.
The HPV virus causes cervix cancer was established by the research work of Nobel laureate Professor Herald Har Hassen, and this led to development of a vaccine for it . The HPV vaccine can prevent 70 percent of cancer cervix and current guildlines recommend immunization all girls is adolescent age groups i.e. before sexual exposure with 3 doses of HPV vaccine. During cancer development, the HPV viral particles get integrated with DNA of human nucleus resulting in mutation and rapid cancerous proliferation. This process cervical takes a few decades, for precancerous or cancerous changes to occur in cells.
What are the aims of cervical cancer screening and the available methods for it?
Screening aims are to detect cancer cervix the precancerous or early stages , when it is treatable. The Pap smear is the most widely available and effective method for this. Efforts are going on to develop an alternative cost effective method to suite low resource setting, to cater the vast population of developing poor countries. For this VILI /VIA/Low cost HPV DNA testing are being investigated in various research trials.

According to the document:
1) In 2011, it was estimated that approximately 21 gay and bisexual men in BC died from HIV disease, and around 18 died from suicide.
2) The estimates of suicide among gay and bisexual men are highly sensitive to assumptions about relative risk and the proportion of males that are gay or bisexual. The estimates could range from 6 to 34 suicides per year.
3) Historically, HIV-related deaths have been higher among gay and bisexual men, but suicide rates may surpass HIV if HIV treatment trends continue successfully. Further study is needed to better understand suicide among gay and bisexual adult men.

Social support groups continue to provide important benefits. They offer information sharing, social connection, exposure to diverse perspectives, and positively impact health. Groups allow participants to feel heard, develop confidence, and access experts. They empower marginalized people and facilitate community involvement. However, certain demographics may feel excluded from groups due to barriers around accessibility, stigma, and lack of representation. Intentional efforts are needed to make groups inclusive of diversity in terms of identities, abilities, and viewpoints. Sustainability relies on participant involvement, facilitator support, and responsiveness to changing needs.

This document summarizes a qualitative study exploring the socio-cultural context of substance use among gay communities in Vancouver, BC. Through interviews with 20 gay and queer men, 3 key themes emerged: 1) Substance use is a social activity that takes place in gay social spaces. 2) The use of drugs and alcohol facilitates social and sexual inclusion in these communities. 3) Participants reported that substance use patterns change over one's lifetime as gay men, with more use occurring during the period of "coming out." The study suggests substance use serves important social and coping functions, but may also influence HIV risk, and interventions should consider how these roles change throughout life.
Day 2 0900 - robert ablenas
This document discusses social support and its importance for the healthy aging of gay men who are baby boomers and generation X. It notes that social support can reduce stress, improve psychological well-being and slow disease progression for those living with HIV. Strong social support is also linked to better cognitive functioning, lower risk of health issues like strokes and cancers, and higher survival rates. However, aging gay men may face challenges maintaining social support networks as they age. The document calls for further research and strategies to promote successful aging for this demographic through strengthening social support and meeting their evolving needs.

This document summarizes research on the experiences of gay and bisexual men who pay for sexual services in Canada. It finds that they have specific health, safety, legal and identity needs not addressed in other studies. Gay and bisexual men reported using the sex industry for physical intimacy, sexual exploration and coping with declining desirability. However, many did not understand prostitution laws or trust the legal system. More research is needed to understand their perspectives over the life course and involve their voices in policy discussions.

This document discusses indigenous traditions in North America and Aotearoa (New Zealand) that recognized multiple gender identities and same-sex relationships. It notes that over 150 indigenous nations in North America had traditions recognizing "Two Spirit" people, who embodied both male and female spirits. These traditions challenged colonial views that imposed rigid binary systems. Despite facing violence from colonizers, some nations initially protected Two Spirit people, though later denied these traditions under colonial pressure. The document also discusses traditional Māori acceptance of diverse sexualities, and the contemporary concepts of "takatapui" and efforts to address HIV/AIDS in culturally appropriate, identity-affirming ways for indigenous communities. It calls for decolonizing approaches and indigenous
1045 1 what new sero-converters in toronto are saying
This document summarizes interviews with 43 newly diagnosed HIV-positive men in Toronto. Many reported experiences with childhood abuse, depression, polydrug use, and partner violence, supporting the "syndemics hypothesis" that these psychosocial problems interact to worsen the HIV epidemic. However, some men acquired HIV through relationships, travel, or other means outside this framework. The researchers aim to understand resilience as well as risks, and how to build healthier communities through addressing trauma, promoting well-being, and fostering social connections rather than pathologizing groups. The study was conducted by researchers from various universities and health organizations, funded by CIHR.

This document outlines a study on gay men's experiences receiving an acute or recent HIV diagnosis. The study recruited 25 men diagnosed through enhanced testing technology in Vancouver. It found that receiving diagnoses over the phone or experiencing initial uncertainty was challenging. For those diagnosed during acute infection, there was confusion about the meaning and increased infectiousness of this stage. While most saw themselves the same as other HIV+ men, some reduced sexual activity during acute infection due to higher viral loads. The study highlights the importance of considering the social aspects of new diagnostic technologies and ensuring sensitive communication of results.

This document summarizes research on social determinants of health for LGBT populations. It discusses minority stress theory and how experiences of discrimination and social disadvantage can negatively impact health outcomes for gay and bisexual men. The document presents results from a national online survey of over 8,000 Canadian men seeking men, finding higher rates of discrimination, mental health issues, sexually risky behavior and other adverse health outcomes among bisexual men and married/partnered men compared to gay men. The results suggest that addressing discrimination and social inequities could help reduce health disparities within the LGBT community.

This document discusses research on factors influencing HIV risk behaviors among gay and bisexual men. It summarizes several key studies that have identified complex psychological and social reasons for unprotected sex, including sexual pleasure and intimacy, ambiguity around risk, and relationships dynamics. While behavioral interventions have had limited effectiveness, HIV diagnosis rates among men who have sex with men have declined in several Western countries since peaking in the 1990s or early 2000s. However, standalone behavioral interventions are not sufficient to significantly reduce HIV transmission.
115 1 beyond behaviours minority stress
The document discusses syndemics, which are closely intertwined health problems that mutually reinforce each other within social contexts. Examples include the SAVA syndemic of substance abuse, violence, and AIDS. Research found that psychological problems like depression, childhood abuse, and partner violence increased risks of unprotected sex and HIV infection among gay men. Minority stress models show how homophobia leads to poor health outcomes by increasing psychological stress. Potential solutions discussed include increasing LGBTQ health access, anti-homophobia education and legislation, and community programs.

The document summarizes a study on the experiences of gay men who were victims of homophobic attacks (gay bashing). Seven men were interviewed about experiences with physical violence, verbal harassment, or both. Four men experienced physical assaults severe enough to require hospitalization. Themes that emerged from the interviews included personal experiences with homophobia, identity changes after an attack, isolation, and feelings of powerlessness. Recommendations focused on improving supports for victims, increasing LGBTQ education for social workers, medical professionals, police, and educators, and fostering more inclusive communities.

This study examined the prevalence and impact of intimate partner violence (IPV) among gay and bisexual men living with HIV. The researchers found that 22.4% of men reported experiencing IPV, most commonly emotional and physical abuse. Experiencing IPV was associated with factors like being Aboriginal, childhood abuse, mental health issues, risky sexual behaviors, poorer quality of life, interruptions in HIV care, and higher rates of AIDS progression and HIV-related hospitalizations. The results suggest IPV is an important but underrecognized issue that can negatively impact the health and well-being of HIV-positive gay and bisexual men.

Identification and nursing management of congenital malformations Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidade
Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidadeProf. Marcus Renato de Carvalho
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.
