The epidemiology of cervical cancer among indigenous women living in Latin America: A systematic review.
Prev Med Rep
January 2025
Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Campinas. Rua Vital Brasil, 80. CEP 13083-888, Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil.
Objective: To review the epidemiological evidence of cervical cancer among Indigenous women living in Latin America.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review of the evidence contained in 10 databases spanning 2003-2019. Two reviewers independently compared papers' titles and abstracts against the inclusionary criteria, and a third reviewer resolved discrepancies.
Aseptic meningitis from herpes simplex virus proctitis.
BMJ Case Rep
January 2025
Graduate Medical Education, University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, Fort lauderdale, Florida, USA.
Sexually transmitted proctitis, a prevalent concern among men who have sex with men (MSM) is frequently caused by a range of pathogens, including herpes simplex virus (HSV), and While HSV-associated proctitis typically presents with visible lesions, cases without external manifestations remain evasive. We report the case of an MSM in his early 30s presenting with dyschezia and perineal discomfort after unprotected anoreceptive intercourse. Despite initial inconspicuous findings, rectal swabs revealed HSV-2 infection.

Infectious Disease Laboratory, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Georgia, Athens, GA.
Objective: To describe the prevalence, clinical findings, lesions, and risk factors associated with chlamydial infections in free-ranging raptors presented to a university veterinary medical teaching hospital.
Methods: Medical records retrospectively searched for raptors admitted from January 1993 through April 2022 were tested for Chlamydia spp infections using quantitative PCR (qPCR), immunohistochemistry, culture, and sequencing. Findings were collected and analyzed.
Could APTIMA mRNA Assay Contribute to Predicting Cervical Bacterial Sexually Transmitted Co-Infections? A Colposcopy Population Study.

In addition to chronic hrHPV anogenital infection, continuing inflammatory cervical changes are intrinsic in the development of precancerous lesions. In younger women, much of this inflammatory background parallels the progressive maturation of squamous metaplasia, often rendering treatment interventions redundant; however, patients with persistent cervical precancer, as well as those harboring invasive bacterial pathogens, might benefit from controlling the active inflammatory process by shortening the HPV natural cycle and avoiding subsequent cervical surgery. In a colposcopy population of 336 predominantly young asymptomatic individuals, we explored the impact of molecularly detected bacterial STIs on HPV DNA and APTIMA positivity rates using validated assays.

In early summer, a wild fledgling kererū () was admitted to a wildlife hospital in Dunedin after falling from its nest and being found on the ground. The bird was underweight, weighing only 391 g (expected weight > 450 g), and determined to be in poor body condition based on palpation of pectoral muscle mass. There was bilateral periorbital swelling and ocular discharge with caseous material blocking the choana.
