- Prevalence of oncogenic human papillomavirus in pregnant adolescents, association with colpocytological changes, risk factors and obstetric outcomes(2022) SOUZA, Henrique Diorio de; WAISSMAN, Adriana Lippi; DIORIO, Giselle Rodrigues Mota; PERES, Stela Verzinhasse; FRANCISCO, Rossana Pulcineli Vieira; GALLETTA, Marco Aurelio KnippelPurpose: The authors aim to carry out an investigation on the impact of cervical oncogenic Human Papillomavirus (HPV) detection in pregnant adolescents, to clarify the prevalence and risk factors, considering the importance and lack of data on this topic in Brazil. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with adolescents receiving prenatal care in a tertiary hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil, with routine Pap smear and oncogenic HPV detection test in the uterine cervix. The authors sought to associate the results of these tests with demographic and obstetric variables. Results: A total of 303 pregnant adolescents whose mean age was 15.30 +/- 1.22 years comprised the study subjects. The frequency of high-risk HPV cervical detection was 50.50%. Multivariate analysis revealed that a large number of partners in their lifetime (OR = 1.27) and having a religion (OR = 2.05) were risk factors for cervical detection of oncogenic HPV, while schooling appeared as a protective factor (OR = 0.85). There was an association between this detection and colpocytological alterations, reaching almost 30% of patients, but without association with obstetric and neonatal outcomes. Conclusion: The prevalence found is one of the highest in Brazil and worldwide. A greater number of partners during their lifetime and having religion were detected as possible factors associated with cervical HPV detection. Detection of cervical HPV-DNA did not influence obstetric and neonatal outcomes. The findings of this study reinforce the need to implement educational measures capable of modifying the incidence of sexually transmitted infections in this population and capable of promoting adherence to HPV vaccination programs.
- Bacteriuria in Pregnant Adolescents and Behavioral Risk Factors: A Cross-Sectional Study at a Brazilian Teaching Hospital(2022) SOUZA, Henrique D. de; FRANCISCO, Rossana P. V.; HASE, Eliane A.; DIORIO, Giselle R. M.; WAISSMAN, Adriana L.; PERES, Stela V.; ZUGAIB, Marcelo; GALLETTA, Marco A. K.Introduction: Bacteriuria during pregnancy is a frequent and important cause of morbidity and complications. Data on its occurrence in pregnant adolescents are still scarce. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary teaching hospital in Sao Paulo, Brazil. All adolescents (<= 18 years) who came for prenatal care between January 2010 and January 2016 were included. Sociodemographic characteristics, medical history, obstetric history, and the results of laboratory tests were selected. A urine sample was aseptically collected from each patient to undergo microscopic and culture analysis. Results: A total of 388 pregnant adolescents averaging 15.30 +/- 1.24 years of age were included. The frequency of bacteriuria in this group was 17.01% (66/388). The lack of sports practice (OR = 8.65; 95% CI, 1.09-68.39), the fact that pregnancy was desired (OR = 2.17; 95% CI, 1.08-4.34), and the use of hormonal methods of contraception (OR = 2.46; 95% CI, 1.04-5.84) turned out to be independent risk factors for bacteriuria. Protective factors were identified as late coitarche (OR = 0.75; 95% CI, 0.57-0.98) and a urine culture analysis at a later gestational age (OR = 0.94; 95% CI, 0.90-0.98). The most often isolated pathogens were Escherichia coli (49%) and Streptococcus agalactiae (18%). Conclusion: Bacteriuria among pregnant adolescents is a relatively common condition. The infection risk of the urinary tract was increased by physical inactivity and seemingly by the influence of behavioral and sexual factors. Such results can help to identify patients at risk, favoring the early diagnosis of urinary tract infections and optimizing prenatal care.
- Bacterial profile and prevalence of urinary tract infections in pregnant women in Latin America: a systematic review and meta-analysis(2023) SOUZA, Henrique Diorio de; DIORIO, Giselle Rodrigues Mota; PERES, Stela Verzinhasse; FRANCISCO, Rossana Pulcineli Vieira; GALLETTA, Marco Aurelio KnippelBackgroundGiven the physiological changes during pregnancy, pregnant women are likely to develop recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) and pyelonephritis, which may result in adverse obstetric outcomes, including prematurity and low birth weight preeclampsia. However, data on UTI prevalence and bacterial profile in Latin American pregnant women remain scarce, necessitating the present systematic review to address this issue.MethodsTo identify eligible observational studies published up to September 2022, keywords were systematically searched in Medline/PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, Web of Science, and Bireme/Lilacs electronic databases and Google Scholar. The systematic review with meta-analysis followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, and the quality of studies was classified according to the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology guidelines. The meta-analysis employed a random-effects method with double-arcsine transformation in the R software.ResultsDatabase and manual searches identified 253,550 citations published until September 2022. Among the identified citations, 67 met the inclusion criteria and were included in the systematic review, corresponding to a sample of 111,249 pregnant women from nine Latin American countries. Among Latin American pregnant women, the prevalence rates of asymptomatic bacteriuria, lower UTI, and pyelonephritis were estimated at 18.45% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 15.45-21.53), 7.54% (95% CI: 4.76-10.87), and 2.34% (95% CI: 0.68-4.85), respectively. Some regional differences were also detected. Among the included studies, Escherichia coli (70%) was identified as the most frequently isolated bacterial species, followed by Klebsiella sp. (6.8%).ConclusionPregnant women in Latin America exhibit a higher prevalence of bacteriuria, UTI, and pyelonephritis than pregnant women globally. This scenario reinforces the importance of universal screening with urine culture during early prenatal care to ensure improved outcomes. Future investigations should assess the microbial susceptibility profiles of uropathogens isolated from pregnant women in Latin America.Trial registrationThis research was registered at PROSPERO (No. CRD42020212601).
- Urinary Bacterial Profile and Antibiotic Susceptibility in Pregnant Adolescents and Pregnant Low Obstetric Risk Adult Women(2021) SOUZA, Henrique Diorio de; HASE, Eliane Azeka; GALLETTA, Marco Aurelio Knippel; DIORIO, Giselle Rodrigues Mota; WAISSMAN, Adriana Lippi; FRANCISCO, Rossana Pulcineli Vieira; ZUGAIB, MarceloIntroduction: Significant bacteriuria is associated with clinical and obstetric complications. The existing studies on the profile of urinary pathogens in pregnant women have widely divergent results and they hardly include data on pregnant adolescents. Methods: This observational retrospective study was conducted in a tertiary hospital in the city of Sao Paulo with 388 pregnant adolescents and 2547 pregnant low-risk obstetric care adults who began prenatal care between January 2010 and January 2016. They were compared in terms of urine sediment, urine culture, and antibiogram results. Results: The prevalence of bacteriuria was 17.01% (66/388) among adolescents and 10.13% (258/2547) among adults. Adolescence was a risk factor for bacteriuria in pregnancy (OR=1.82, CI95%=1.35-2.44, p=0.08). The most frequently isolated pathogen in urine culture was Escherichia coli, both in adolescents (49%) and in adults (42.18%). In positive urine cultures, urinary leukocytes were present in greater numbers in adolescents than in adults (p<0.001). Resistance to quinolones in general was more frequent among adults (OR=5.86, CI95%=0.78-44.20, p<0.001), but the tendency was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Escherichia coli and the less frequent Streptococcus agalactiae were the etiologic agents most often found in the urine cultures both of adolescents and adults. Higher rates of bacteriuria and of abnormal urine sediments prevailed among adolescents.
