    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 Knippel
    Purpose: 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.
