Article Synopsis
- HPV is a virus that can cause cervical cancer and is a common STD that affects both guys and girls.
- A study in Mashhad, Iran tested 428 people for HPV and found that about 30% of them had the virus.
- The most common type of HPV found was HPV-6, and the study shows different types of HPV can affect people in different ways.
Article Synopsis
- * A significant portion of the cases (75%) were classified as high-risk, with HPV-11 and HPV-6 being the most frequently identified genotypes.
- * The findings highlight the urgent need for targeted education and vaccination efforts aimed at young individuals to combat the high rates of HPV infection, particularly focusing on high-risk strains.
Objectives were to investigate aspects of the COVID-19 epidemics via testing the individuals who were referred to Aramesh Medical Laboratory in Tehran and to integrate the molecular results with epidemiological data since the beginning of the epidemic. In this cross-sectional Study 77528 outpatients were referred to Aramesh Medical laboratory by physicians for the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection between March 2019 and May 2021. Viral acid nucleic extracted from nasal and throat specimens and subsequently amplified using Reverse Transcriptase Real-Time PCR.

Methods: HPV DNA was extracted from genital swabs of the study participants and amplified by Real Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).
The introduction of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques has improved the detection of respiratory viruses, particularly with the use of multiplex real-time technique with the capability of simultaneous detection of various pathogens in a single reaction. The aim of this study was to apply the above technology for the diagnosis of influenza infections and at the same time to differentiate between common flu species between hospitalized patients in Laleh hospital (Iran) between two flu seasons (2016-2017 and 2017-2018). Different respiratory specimens were collected from 540 patients from a period of December 2016 to May 2018 and were sent to the laboratory for molecular diagnosis.
