Abstract
Background
Kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) have increased risk of human papillomavirus (HPV)-related anogenital (pre-)cancers, including anal high-grade intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) and cancer. Previous studies on anal high-risk HPV among KTRs are sparse.
Methods
In a cross-sectional study, we included 247 KTRs and 248 controls from a dermatology department and five nephrology departments in Denmark during 2016–2017. All participants underwent a n anal cytobrush sample which was tested for HPV-DNA. Participants completed a questionnaire on lifestyle and sexual habits. We used logistic regression to estimate odds ratios (ORs) of anal hrHPV in KTRs compared with controls and risk factors for anal hrHPV in KTRs.
Results
The anal hrHPV prevalence was higher in female KTRs (45.5%) than controls (27.2%). Female KTRs had almost three-fold higher adjusted odds of anal hrHPV than controls (ORadjusted = 2.87, 95% confidence interval[CI], 1.57–5.22). In contrast, among men we did not observe increased prevalence or odds of anal hrHPV in KTRs compared with controls (prevalence: 19.4% vs 23.6%; ORadjusted = 0.85, 95%CI, 0.44–1.64). Among hrHPV positive KTRs, 63% and 52% of men and women, respectively, were infected with hrHPV types covered by the nonavalent HPV vaccine (16/18/31/33/45/52/58). Current smoking, >10 lifetime sexual partners, history of genital warts, and among men having had re ceptive anal sex, were risk factors for anal hrHPV in KTRs.
Conclusion
Female KTRs had increased risk of anal hrHPV compared with immunocompetent controls. Our findings highlight that pre-transplant HPV vaccination should be considered to prevent anal HSIL and cancer caused by anal hrHPV infection in KTRs.

Effectiveness and Pitfalls of Intraoral Distraction in Wide Alveolar Clefts: An Experience

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader
Restoration of alveolar cleft defects is both essential and challenging for the craniofacial team. The technique of distraction is useful in large alveolar clefts, especially after the failure of conventional grafting procedures. The study aimed to analyze the effectiveness and problems of an intraoral tooth-borne distraction device. (Source: Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery)

Mortality and Associated Variables of Full-mouth Extractions

alwin shared this article with you from Inoreader
Full-mouth extractions (FMEs) are common procedures that are classically performed electively due to caries and periodontal disease. Up to 17% of adults over the age of 65 and 2% of adults aged 20-64 in the United States are edentulous. At the University of Cincinnati Medical Center, approximately 250 FMEs are performed annually with nearly half performed on adults over the age of 50. There is currently an absence of data on this patient population and their overall outcomes. The authors hypothesize that FMEs are often performed on socioeconomically and medically vulnerable populations, thereby further compromising their conditions and potentially contributing to their demise.
