Evaluation of Human Papillomavirus Infections in Prostatic Disease: a Cross-Sectional Study in Iran

The Aetiological Role of Human Papillomavirus in Colorectal Carcinoma: An Iranian Population- Based Case Control Study

“…In comparison with this study, Damin et al (2007), Chen et al (2012) and Burnett-Hartman et al (2013) found HPV-16 as the most frequently detected HPV type in patients with CRC. Therefore, this study supports the hypothesis that expresses the different frequency patterns of HPV infection according to geographical variations and ethnicity of the populations (Jung et al, 2004;Chansaenroj According to Table 3, analysis of medical data in infected patients with CRC in compare to non-infected patients with CRC explained a possible association between high-risk types of HPV infections and accession Gillison and shah (2003), Chen et al (2012), Hamid and Mustafa (2012), Ghasemian et al (2013), Zandberg et al (2013) in comparison with results from Motlagh et al (2007), Giuliani et al (2008) investigate the ability of HPV infection to induce advanced stages of cancer in different malignancies. Furthermore, this study highlights the impact of high-risk types of HPV infection in distant metastasis and malignant lymph nodes invasion in compare with non-infected patients, which have been previously reported in several investigations (Chen et al, 1993;Gillison and shah, 2003;Bognar et al, 2008;McHugh et al, 2009;Zandberg et al, 2013).…”

Association between human papillomavirus and prostate cancer: A meta-analysis

“…These studies were published between 1990 and 2015 and comprised 971 PCa cases in total. The majority of the studies originated from Asia (n=8) (38,40,(43)(44)(45)48,51,56), Europe (n=7) (22,39,42,47,50,53,55) and North America (n=5) (23,49,52,54,57), and the remaining studies originated from South America (n=1) (46) and Oceania (n=2) (6,41 Table I. Characteristics of studies included in the meta-analysis.…”

No Association Between Human Papillomavirus and Prostate Cancer

“…The first study included 29 prostate cancers and 167 BPH samples in Tehran, Iran. HPV DNA was found in 17.2% of prostate cancers and 4.8% of BPH samples and the difference was not significant (2). The second study included 104 primary prostate adenocarcinomas and 104 control tissues of BPH in Iran.…”

“…Therefore, the epidemiological and biological study of the etiology of prostate cancer is essential. Multiple etiologies have been hypothesized for the cause of prostate cancer, including genetic defects, infectious agents, and associated inflammation (2).…”
