El Virus de Papiloma Humano (VPH) afecta en gran parte las mujeres en edad reproductiva, la cual oscila entre los 15 y 49 años de edad. Esta es una enfermedad de transmisión sexual. Se manifiesta en forma de condilomas acuminados, que son verrugas en los genitales de la mujer, causados por un crecimiento celular anormal. Los casos que no son atendidos con el cuidado requerido son precursores de cáncer cervical. Se puede detectar con facilidad utilizando la técnica del Papanicolaou y pueden ser tratadas por métodos como la crioterapia. Con la realización de esta investigación se pretendió determinar la incidencia del Virus de Papiloma Humano en las mujeres que asistieron a la Clínica de Patología de Cervix del Hospital Luis Eduardo Aybar en el período Enero 2003-enero 2004. La metodología utilizada fue de carácter retrospectivo, recopilando datos de las historias clínicas y de los exámenes citológicos de las pacientes de dicho Hospital en el período antes mencionado. Se tomaron como muestra 210 expedientes de pacientes que se presentaron durante este período. Encontrando una incidencia de 52 por ciento algo muy alarmante. Se demostró que la relaciones sexuales a temprana edad tienen mucha relación con el contagio del virus ya que entre 15 y 16 años estuvo la mayor frecuencia del primer coito; se demostró que a menor edad mayor es la incidencia del virus.
International audience ; Although initiatives are underway in the United Kingdom to diagnose HIV infection early, late presentation is still a major issue and often results in serious health complications for the individual and has implications for society, including high costs and increased rates of transmission. Intervention strategies in the UK have aimed at increasing testing opportunities but still a significant proportion of those with HIV infection either decline testing or continue to test late. The main objective of this study is to identify ideas and themes as to why testing was not carried out earlier in men who have sex with men (MSM) who presented with late HIV infection. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with MSM presenting late with a CD4 cell count of less than 200. A structured framework approach was used to analyse the data collected and generate ideas as to why they did not seek testing earlier. 17 MSM were interviewed and four main themes were identified: psychological barriers, including fear of illness and dying, stigma surrounding testing for HIV and in living with a positive diagnosis, perceived low risk for contracting HIV despite participants reporting having a good understanding of HIV and its transmission and strong views that a more active approach by healthcare services, including general practice, is necessary if the uptake of HIV testing is to increase. Late presentation with HIV infection continues to be a problem in the UK despite government initiatives to expand opportunities for testing. Recurring themes for late testing were a low perceived risk for HIV infection and a fear of HIV and a positive diagnosis. Population-targeted health promotion alongside a more pro-active approach by healthcare professionals and making HIV testing more convenient and accessible may result in earlier testing.
