Q

HPV type______is most commonly associated with cervical adenocarcinoma. This type of cervical cancer is more difficult to detect on cytology because it occurs in the upper portion of the endocervical canal.

A

HPV type 18

86
Q

The most common anogenital low-risk (nononcogenic) HPV types are type _____and_____ (which cause 90% of genital warts),

A

6 and 11

87
Q

HPV type_____ is most commonly associated with high-grade CIN and invasive cancers. Although women infected with this type are at greater risk for developing high-grade cervical lesions, most of these HPV infections will not develop into abnormal cellular changes.

A

16

88
Q

Genital warts may be cancerous. In order to avoid missing a rare diagnosis of verrucous carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma, health care providers should

A

biopsy all atypical lesions and send for histological evaluation.

89
Q

The overall goal of cervical cancer screening is to prevent morbidity and mortality by (a) identifying, treating, and surveilling high-grade cervical cancer precursors, thereby reducing a woman’s risk of developing invasive cancer, and (b) avoiding unnecessary or over treatment of benign and transient HPV infections and cancer precursor lesions that most likely will regress. This goal is accomplished by

A

Loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP),

90
Q

Current approaches to cervical cancer prevention include

A

(a) vaccination, (b) cervical cancer screening, (c) follow-up evaluation using colposcopy and cervical biopsy, and (d) treatment for biopsy-confirmed high-grade cervical cancer precursors.

91
Q

HPV quadrivalent vaccine to protect against HPV genotypes

A

6, 11, 16, and 18

92
Q

The ACIP recommends routine vaccination at age_____ and may begin as early as age 9 years. And up to age ______.

A

11 to 12,26

93
Q

The _______________stage of HIV is when the virus establishes itself in the body; acute HIV syndrome (viral flu-like syndrome) occurs within 2–4 weeks of exposure to HIV. Characterized by fever, swollen glands, rash, muscle and joint aches and pains, and headaches. May last for several weeks. May become transiently immunocompromised. Takes 6–12 weeks for immune system to produce antibodies. Newly infected individual’s blood may not test positive; however, individual may be highly contagious.

A

Acute infection

94
Q

The _______________stage of HIV is when the viral load stabilizes. Period of clinical latency with few or no symptoms; however, viral replication in lymphoid tissues continues. The individual is relatively symptom free but may have transient episodes of HIV-related infections. Women may be prone to aggressive cervical dysplasia.

A

Clinical latency

95
Q

The ______________ stage is when the CD4+ count < 200. Immune system is badly damaged and individual is vulnerable to opportunistic infections such as PCP. Individuals can respond to aggressive ART.

CD4+ count < 50. Individual is severely ill with extensive organ involvement, aggressive neoplasia (Karposi’s sarcoma), wasting disease syndromes, severe disseminated infections such as M. tuberculosis and extrapulmonary histoplasmosis. Death occurs with vascular collapse and organ failure.

A

HIV

96
Q

Sexual transmission of HIV is ________ more efficient from male to female than from female to male because HIV in semen is in higher concentrations than in cervical and vaginal infections and because the vaginal area has a much larger mucosal area of exposure to HIV than does the penis.

A

two to four times

97
Q

Both younger and postmenopausal women may be at greater risk for acquiring HIV because of a _________________ resulting in increased friability and risk of trauma during intercourse, thus providing direct access to the bloodstream.

A

thinner vaginal epithelium

98
Q

Factors such as______, ________, ________, ________ indirectly increase the prevalence of HIV in at-risk populations.

A

poverty, lack of education, social inequity, and inadequate access to health care

99
Q

The risk for perinatal transmission of HIV can be reduced with the use of antiretroviral treatment. Without treatment the risk of transmitting HIV to a neonate is approximately ________, but can be reduced to less than _____with antiretroviral treatment and obstetrical intervention, including cesarean section at 38 weeks gestation and not breastfeeding.

A

30%, 2%

100
