“…Concomitant infection between TV and G. vaginalis and TV and C. albicans were found in 3 women, respectively. The concomitant infection is commonly found in cases where TV makes the vaginal environment susceptible to infection by C. albicans, and other microorganisms, such as G. vaginalis joins leading to the development of bacterial vaginosis (BV) [24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. The presence of atypical squamous cells of unknown significance was observed in 10 of the sample population, and HPV characteristic lesions were observed in 14 women, and among them, 5/24 of women who show lesion on the pap smear, were infected concomitantly with TV.…”

There is a scarcity of studies on the prevalence of Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) in indigenous populations of Brazil. We conducted a cross-sectional study between January and December 2018, on indigenous women living nearby an urban center of the Midwest region of Brazil and determined the prevalence of TV. Factors associated with TV infection and a comparison of molecular and direct microscopy diagnoses were determined. 241 indigenous women aged above 18 years participated in the study. Cervical and vaginal brush samples were collected to diagnose TV through polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Direct microscopy for detection of TV, and cellular changes was performed. A sociodemographic and behavioral questionnaire was applied at the beginning of the study. All the data were analyzed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences. The result obtained showed that 27.8% [95% CI: 22.2-33.9] were positive for TV on PCR, while 7.41% [95% CI: 4.1-11] showed positive on direct microscopy. Direct microcopy also found 21 (8.71%) and 8 (3.31%) women infected with Gardnerella vaginalis and Candida albicans, respectively. In addition, 10 women presented atypical squamous cells of unknown significance and 14 lesions suggestive of HPV. Single women, under the age of 30 and who do not use condoms, were found to have a greater chance of getting TV infection. The high prevalence TV found in this population is comparable to highly vulnerable populations, as prisoners, sex workers and women in regions with low socioeconomic levels, moreover, seems to be an underdiagnosis of this infection. Therefore, a routine test program, as well as a review of the diagnostic method used, is encouraged for proper management.

“…Considering the age group, the mean age of patients with G. vaginalis verified in the present study was 42.34 years and a higher prevalence was observed in patients aged 51 to 60 years. Other studies carried out in Brazil reported higher prevalences of the microorganism in younger women, aged between 21 and 39 years (OLIVEIRA et al, 2007;BRINGEL et al, 2012;BARBOSA et al, 2021). Only one study, carried out in Maringá, PR, reported a higher prevalence of G. vaginalis in women older than 40 years, in which the mean age of the patients was 40.91 years (TONINATO et al, 2016).…”

This study aimed to verify the prevalence of Gardnerella vaginalis in cervical Papanicolaou smears of patients attended at a laboratory of pathology in the city of Bento Gonçalves, RS. A retrospective cross-sectional and descriptive study was performed by analyzing 49617 cytopathological reports issued from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2020. A total of 21.86% (10839/49617) positive reports for G. vaginalis were found, and the years 2020 and 2017 presented the highest and lowest prevalences, corresponding to 25.28% and 19.40%, respectively. The mean age of patients was 45.59 years, and the highest prevalence was found in patients aged 51 to 60 years corresponding to 22.74%. The fungus Candida sp. was observed in 3.60% of the reports positive for G. vaginalis. Among the cytopathological alterations associated with G. vaginalis, the atypical cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) result was the most predominant, in 3.97% of the reports. Therefore, the results demonstrated a considerable prevalence of the bacteria in pap smears reports. Thus, it is necessary to inform the female population about the diagnosis and treatment of the bacteria, to avoid possible complications.

Introdução: o objetivo do presente estudo foi comparar o exame citológico preventivo do colo do útero realizado no Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS) e de pacientes atendidos por diferentes planos de saúde e privados na cidade de Passo Fundo. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo quantitativo descritivo de corte transversal, em 4.523 laudos de Exames Ginecológicos realizados pelo SUS, pelos planos de saúde e pela rede privada, no ano de 2019, no setor de patologia do Hospital São Vicente de Paulo, da cidade de Passo Fundo – RS. Resultados: Foram analisados 896 coletados pelo SUS, 3.182 por diversos convênios e 445 de forma particular. A inflamação cervicovaginal mais prevalente no SUS foi a Gardnerella mobiluncus, em outros convênios Gardnerella vaginalis assim como no particular. Observando as três diferentes redes de saúde a faixa etária mais atingida pela G. mobiluncus foi de 40 a 49 anos e pela G. vaginalis de 20 a 29 anos assim como na Candida sp. Conclusões: Foi observado que o SUS possui menor escolaridade, esse pode ser o motivo de apresentarem maiores alterações celulares escamosas relatadas pelo exame citológico preventivo, já que pela falta de informação estas procuram realizar o exame somente quando apresentam alguma sintomatologia.
