Concordant Oral and Vaginal Human Papillomavirus Infection in the United States.

Importance: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a common infection in adults, with tropism for sites in the head and neck and the genital tracts. To date, few studies have addressed concurrent infection in these sites.

Objective: To understand the prevalence, characteristics, and concordance of HPV infections in the oral and vaginal regions.

Predictors of high-risk and low-risk oral HPV infection in the United States.

Objectives/hypothesis: Determine predictors of high-risk and low-risk oral HPV infection in the United States.

Study Design: Retrospective analyses of National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey cross-sectional data of U.S.

Comparison of two nasal cell collection methods in determining cyclic adenosine monophosphate levels and its association with olfaction: A feasibility study.

Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is a second messenger that may be associated with olfactory function. No known studies have compared existing collection methods for determining nasal cAMP levels. This is a prospective study comparing the comfort and reliability of the nasal curette and cytobrush.
