“…Currently, there are more than 200 different types of HPV known, of which 40 can infect the anogenital tract of men and women. Among these, 12 are considered as high risk that can cause genital warts and cancer (Gomes, 2019;Araújo et al, 2021).…”

Introduction: Human papillomavirus (HPV) causes the most common sexually transmitted infection (STI) in the world. It affects people regardless of gender and age, causing genital warts and cancer. Objective: To evaluate university students' knowledge of HPV and its relationship with head and neck and oral cancers. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study using an online questionnaire administered to undergraduate students at a public university (n=335). Results: In total, 69.3% of the participants were unaware of the relationship between HPV and head and neck cancers and 34.6% claimed that HPV may not cause oral cancer. The chances of knowing about the relationship of HPV with head and neck cancers were significant for participants who knew that HPV could be asymptomatic (OR = 9.9; p = 0.029), that might cause genital warts in men (OR = 4.0; p = 0.015), and those aged 24 years or older (OR = 1.9; p = 0.021). However, undergraduate students in the field of health and medicine (OR = 0.419; p = 0.002), who had sex at least twice a week (OR = 0.471; p = 0.017), and were unaware of the target public for the HPV vaccine (OR: 0.222, p<0.001) were less likely to know about the relationship. Students who knew of the relationship between HPV and female (OR = 3.6; p = 0.010) and male genital warts (OR = 3.0; p = 0.005) or were immunized (OR = 1.8; p = 0.020) were more likely to understand the viral interaction with oral cancer. Those who were unaware of the population eligible for HPV vaccine (OR = 0.493; p = 0.017) also showed gaps in their knowledge of this relationship. Conclusion: Our findings showed that there were limitations in the knowledge about HPV, its vaccine, and its relationship with head and neck and oral cancers.

Objetivo: O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar a prevalência de Infecções Sexualmente Transmissíveis (IST) em universitários de uma instituição pública de Parnaíba. Métodos: A pesquisa tratou-se de um estudo descritivo do tipo transversal e inferencial de abordagem quantitativa realizado no período de maio de 2020 a fevereiro de 2021, por meio da ferramenta online Google Forms. Contou com uma amostra de 286 voluntários na faixa etária de 18 a 38 anos. Para análise dos dados utilizou-se uma estatística descritiva e teste Qui-quadrado. Resultados: Os resultados demonstraram que a prevalência de IST nos últimos 12 meses foi de 33,2%, tendo 3,8% destes ocorridos durante o período da pesquisa, e apenas 14,0% procuraram atendimento de saúde. Somente 33,2% relataram que quase sempre usam preservativo. Sobre educação sexual, 65% referiram contato com a temática. Porém, não foi decisivo na prevenção às IST, que das mencionadas, as mais comuns foram candidíase, sífilis, HPV e gonorreia. Conclusão: Os percentuais encontrados neste estudo apontam uma moderada prevalência de IST na população jovem em estudo, bem como, apontam para uma proteção àqueles que fazem uso de preservativo durante o sexo vaginal e oral.
