Oral Human Papillomavirus in Youth From the Pediatric HIV/AIDS Cohort Study
Year: 2016
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: In contrast to high rates of oral human papillomavirus (HPV) found in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected adults, only 2% of 209 perinatally HIV-infected youth had oral HPV. This rate was similar in HIV-exposed but uninfected youth. No association was found with sexual activity; however, low CD4 counts were associated with oral HPV.
