Molecular Epidemiological Study on Prevalence of Human Papillomaviruses in Patients with Common Warts in Beijing Area

Evidence that human papillomavirus causes inverted papilloma is sparse

“…The prevalence of oral HPV Infection was also independently associated with male gender, increased number of sexual partners, and number of cigarettes smoked per day . Although HPV detection rates in inverted papilloma are 0% to 79%, HPV is also detected at variable rates in nasal polyps (0–74%) . With regard to other HPV‐related neoplasia, the prevalence of HPV in common warts, condylomata acuminata, respiratory papillomatosis, and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma is approximately 85%, 80%, 95%, and 72%, respectively …”

Association of human papillomavirus 7 with warts in toe webs

“…On the basis of the distribution of HPV genotypes in the VV group, we conclude that HPV 57, 27, 2 and 7 are the main HPV genotypes of VV in Nanjing city and areas nearby. A recent molecular study on the prevalence of HPV in patients with common warts in Beijing showed that HPV 57, 1a, 27 and 2a were the main HPV genotypes; no HPV 7 was found in common warts 8 …”

“…A recent molecular study on the prevalence of HPV in patients with common warts in Beijing showed that HPV 57, 1a, 27 and 2a were the main HPV genotypes; no HPV 7 was found in common warts. 8 The dearth of studies focusing on extragenital warts 9-12 leaves gaps in our current understanding about HPV distribution and HPV pathogenesis in the development of extragenital warts, especially those morphologically similar to genital CA. Kui et al studied nine children with CA in their oral cavities.…”

Determination of Causative Human Papillomavirus Type in Tissue Specimens of Common Warts Based on Estimated Viral Loads

“…To the best of our knowledge, only seven small-scale HPV prevalence studies performed on a total of 129 histologically confirmed CW tissue samples have been published in peerreviewed literature to date (Supplementary Table 1) (Gross et al, 1982;Chen et al, 1993;Egawa, 1994;Lei et al, 2009;Sun et al, 2010;de Koning et al, 2011;Šterbenc et al, 2017), with HPV2/27/57 and HPV1 being the most prevalent HPVs detected, but with extremely variable detection rates obtained in different studies (0-83.5 and 0-46.7% prevalence, respectively). Similarly, detection rates of multiple HPVs (the presence of more than one HPV type within one lesion) were tremendously variable (0-88.9%), prompting the development of tools for assessment of the most probable lesion-causative HPV among those detected within a particular CW (Šterbenc et al, 2017).…”
