Abstract Stomoxys calcitrans causes losses to livestock, mainly to cattle. This study aimed to determine the pathogenic potential of Heterorhabditis bacteriophora HP88 and H. baujardi LPP7 against S. calcitrans larvae after being exposed to byproducts of the sugar and alcohol industry. The efficacy of EPNs on stable fly larvae was evaluated in bioassays with vinasse at three temperatures (16, 25 and 35 °C) and concentrations (0, 50 and 100%), as well as in relation to larva age (4, 6 and 8 days) in filter cake and EPNs concentration (100, 300 and 500 IJs/larva) in sugarcane bagasse. H. bacteriophora showed higher efficacy than H. baujardi at all temperatures. Vinasse did not have a negative effect on the virulence of H. bacteriophora. The age of fly larvae did not affect the mortality rates caused by the EPNs. In bagasse, H. bacteriophora presented higher mortality rates than the control group. It is concluded that EPNs can be a potential component in integrated strategies of stable fly control and outbreak prevention in areas of sugar and alcohol production.

Resumo Stomoxys calcitrans causa perdas à agropecuária, principalmente na bovinocultura. Este estudo objetivou verificar o potencial patogênico de Heterorhabditis bacteriophora HP88 e H. baujardi LPP7 para larvas de S. calcitrans, após serem expostos a subprodutos da indústria sucroalcooleira. A eficácia dos NEPs sobre larvas da mosca-dos-estábulos foi avaliada em bioensaios com vinhaça em três temperaturas (16, 25 e 35 °C) e concentrações (0, 50 e 100%), bem como em relação à idade da larva (4, 6 e 8 dias) em torta de filtro e concentração de NEPs (100, 300 e 500 JIs/larva) em bagaço de cana-de-açúcar. H. bacteriophora apresentou maior eficácia do que H. baujardi em todas as temperaturas. O vinhoto não apresentou efeito negativo sobre a virulência de H. bacteriophora. A idade das larvas não influenciou no aumento ou diminuição da mortalidade dos NEPs. Em bagaço de cana, H. bacteriophora apresentou taxas de mortalidade superiores à do grupo controle. Conclui-se que os NEPs podem ser um potencial componente em estratégias de controle integrado e prevenção de surtos da mosca-dos-estábulos, em áreas de produção de açúcar e álcool.

Abstract The Brazilian Caatinga has already lost extensive areas of original vegetation, thus it becomes imperative to perform fauna inventories within this region to fill geographical sampling gaps. Herein, we present a taxonomic list of the herpetofauna of a mountain chain located in the central zone of Rio Grande do Norte (RN) state whose region includes two priority areas for conservation of the Caatinga: “CA087 – Serra de Santana” in the west, and “CA078 – Nascente do Potengi” in the east. The sampling was carried out using methods of visual searching, pitfall traps with drift fences, specimens rescued during vegetation suppression activities in wind energy projects, occasional encounters, and third-party records. We recorded 19 amphibian species and 53 reptile species (23 lizards, 24 snakes, five amphisbaenians and one chelonian). About half of the recorded species have distributions entirely or mostly in the Caatinga. The mountain range sampled in this study harbors virtually all species found in nearby lowlands of the “sertaneja” depression of RN state, plus some relevant species with relictual distributions in the Caatinga, highlighting the importance of these highland areas for conservation of the Caatinga herpetofauna.

Resumo A Caatinga brasileira já perdeu extensas áreas de vegetação original, por isso torna-se importante realizar inventários de fauna nesta região para preencher lacunas geográficas de amostragem. Aqui, apresentamos uma lista taxonômica da herpetofauna de uma cadeia serrana localizada na zona central do estado do Rio Grande do Norte (RN) e cuja região inclui duas áreas prioritárias para conservação da Caatinga: “CA087 – Serra de Santana” a oeste, e “CA078 – Nascente do Potengi” a leste. A amostragem foi realizada por meio de métodos de busca visual, armadilhas de interceptação e queda, espécimes resgatados durante atividades de supressão vegetal em projetos de energia eólica, encontros ocasionais e registros de terceiros. Registramos 19 espécies de anfíbios e 53 espécies de répteis (23 lagartos, 24 serpentes, cinco anfisbênias e um quelônio). Cerca de metade das espécies registradas tem distribuição inteiramente ou predominantemente na Caatinga. A cadeia serrana amostrada neste estudo abriga praticamente todas as espécies encontradas nas planícies próximas da depressão sertaneja do RN, além de algumas espécies relevantes com distribuição relictual na Caatinga, destacando a importância dessas áreas de altitude para a conservação da herpetofauna da Caatinga.

ABSTRACT Objective: To learn about the perception of fathers regarding their inclusion in health services and/or educational activities. Method: Qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive study addressing 22 fathers participating in a group of pregnant women in Rio Grande, RS, Brazil. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using the content analysis technique. Results: The following categories emerged from the participants’ reports: fathers’ perceptions regarding their presence in health services and fathers’ perceptions regarding their participation in the group of pregnant women. Additionally, they provided contributions and suggestions regarding their experiences with the group’s meetings. Conclusion: The participants felt excluded from the services, which shows that health intervention strategies need to be (re)constructed to implement actions that include fathers as active participants in care, so they recognize the importance of their role in healthy human development.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), previously known as Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), is one of the most common hepatic diseases in individuals with overweight or obesity. In this context, a panel of experts from three medical societies was organized to develop an evidence-based guideline on the screening, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of MASLD. Material and methods: A MEDLINE search was performed to identify randomized clinical trials, meta-analyses, cohort studies, observational studies, and other relevant studies on NAFLD. In the absence of studies on a certain topic or when the quality of the study was not adequate, the opinion of experts was adopted. Classes of Recommendation and Levels of Evidence were determined using prespecified criteria. Results: Based on the literature review, 48 specific recommendations were elaborated, including 11 on screening and diagnosis, 9 on follow-up, 14 on nonpharmacologic treatment, and 14 on pharmacologic and surgical treatment. Conclusions: A literature search allowed the development of evidence-based guidelines on the screening, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of MASLD in individuals with overweight or obesity.

Abstract Many studies about fasciolosis control have been carried out, whether acting on the adult parasite or in Pseudosuccinea columella, compromising the development of the larval stages. The present study aimed to evaluate, under laboratory conditions, the susceptibility of P. columella to Heterorhabditis bacteriophora HP88, during for 24 and 48 hours of exposure. The snails were evaluated for 21 days for accumulated mortality; number of eggs laid; hatchability rate; biochemical changes; and histopathological analysis. We found that exposure induced a reduction in glucose and glycogen levels, characterizing a negative energy balance, due to the depletion of energy reserves as a result of the direct competition established by the nematode/endosymbiont bacteria complex in such substrates. A mortality rate of 48.25% and 65.52% was observed in the group exposed for 24 h and 48 h, respectively, along with significant impairment of reproductive biology in both exposed groups in relation to the respective controls. The results presented here show that P. columella is susceptible to the nematode H. bacteriophora, with the potential to be used as an alternative bioagent in the control of this mollusk, especially in areas considered endemic for fascioliasis, in line with the position expressed by the World Health Organization Health.

Resumo Muitos estudos têm sido realizados sobre o controle da fasciolose, seja atuando no parasito adulto, seja em Pseudosuccinea columella, comprometendo o desenvolvimento das fases larvais. O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar, em condições laboratoriais, a suscetibilidade de P. columela à Heterorhabditis bacteriophora HP88, durante 24 e 48 horas de exposição. Os moluscos foram avaliados por 21 dias para mortalidade acumulada; número de ovos postos; taxa de eclodibilidade; alterações bioquímicas; e análise histopatológica. Constatou-se que a exposição induziu a redução nos níveis de glicose e glicogênio, caracterizando um balanço energético negativo, devido ao esgotamento das reservas energéticas, decorrentes da competição direta estabelecida pelo complexo nematoide/bactéria endossimbionte nesses substratos. Foi observada uma taxa de mortalidade de 48,25% e65,52% no grupo exposto por 24 h 48 h, respectivamente, juntamente com comprometimento significativo da biologia reprodutiva em ambos os grupos expostos em relação aos respectivos controles. Os resultados aqui apresentados, mostram que P. columela é suscetível ao nematódeo H. bacteriophora, com potencial para ser utilizada como um bioagente alternativo no controle dess molusco, especialmente em áreas consideradas endêmicas para fasciolose, em linha com a posição expressa pela Organização Mundial da Saúde.

ABSTRACT Objective: Primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (PMNE) is a prevalent condition in childhood, and the pathophysiology is multifactorial. This study investigated the relationship between the toilet training process (TT) and PMNE in children and adolescents. Patients and Methods: A case-control study was carried out from 2015 to 2020. The presence of PMNE was identified according to International Children's Continence Society criteria. A semi-structured questionnaire was applied to assess TT. Results: The study included 103 children and adolescents with PMNE and 269 participants with normal psychomotor development without PMNE (control group [CG]). Readiness signals were more remembered and less frequent in participants with PMNE (p=0.001) when compared to control group. No differences were found between the groups regarding the onset age of the daytime TT (p= 0.10), the nocturnal TT (p=0.08), the acquisition of daytime continence (p=0.06), and the type of equipment used for the TT (p=0.99). The use of Child-Oriented approach in group of children with enuresis was lower than in controls [87.4% (90/103) versus 94% (250/266)], respectively (OR= 0.44, 95% CI 0.21-0.94, p = 0.039). Conclusions: The age of onset of TT, acquisition of daytime continence, and the type of equipment were not associated with higher occurrence of PMNE. On the other hand, the Child-Oriented approach was a protective factor for the occurrence of PMNE.

Resumo Introdução: Estudos que avaliaram o manejo do refluxo laringofaríngeo por otorrinolaringologistas mostraram uma importante heterogeneidade em relação à definição, diagnóstico e tratamento, o que leva a discrepâncias no tratamento do paciente. Faltam informações sobre o conhecimento e as práticas atuais dos otorrinolaringologistas brasileiros sobre o refluxo laringofaríngeo. Objetivo: Investigar as tendências no manejo da doença do refluxo laringofaríngeo entre os otorrinolaringologistas brasileiros. Método: O questionário foi enviado por e-mail aos membros da Associação Brasileira de Otorrinolaringologia-Cirurgia de Cabeça e Pescoço. Esta pesquisa foi inicialmente conduzida pelo LPR Study Group of Young Otolaryngologists da International Federation of Otolaryngological Societies. Resultados: De acordo com os respondentes da pesquisa, a prevalência de refluxo laringofaríngeo foi estimada em 26,8% dos pacientes consultados e os sintomas mais comuns foram sensação de globus, pigarro, tosse e refluxo de ácido estomacal. Obstrução nasal, disfunção da trompa de Eustáquio, otite média aguda e crônica, nódulos nas pregas vocais e hemorragia foram considerados como não associados ao refluxo laringofaríngeo pela maioria dos respondentes. Cerca de 2/3 dos otorrinolaringologistas brasileiros basearam o diagnóstico de refluxo laringofaríngeo na avaliação dos sintomas e achados e na resposta positiva a testes terapêuticos empíricos. Inibidores de bomba de prótons uma ou duas vezes ao dia foi o esquema terapêutico mais usado. Somente 21,4% dos otorrinolaringologistas brasileiros já ouviram falar sobre refluxo laringofaríngeo não ácido e misto e o conhecimento sobre a utilidade do monitoramento de pH por impedância intraluminal multicanal foi mínimo; 30,5% dos respondentes não se consideraram tão bem informados sobre o refluxo laringofaríngeo. Conclusão: Embora os sintomas relacionados ao refluxo laringofaríngeo e as principais abordagens diagnósticas e terapêuticas referidas pelos otorrinolaringologistas brasileiros sejam consistentes com a literatura, a pesquisa identificou algumas limitações, como o conhecimento insuficiente do papel do refluxo laringofaríngeo em diversas condições otorrinolaringológicas e da possibilidade de refluxo não ácido ou misto em casos refratários. Estudos futuros são necessários para estabelecer recomendações internacionais para o manejo de doença do refluxo laringofaríngeo.

Abstract Introduction: Studies assessing the management of laryngopharyngeal reflux by otolaryngologists have reported an important heterogeneity regarding the definition, diagnosis, and treatment, which leads to discrepancies in the management of the patient. Information about the current knowledge and practices of Brazilian otolaryngologists in laryngopharyngeal reflux is lacking. Objective: To investigate the trends in management of laryngopharyngeal reflux disease among Brazilian otolaryngologists. Methods: A survey was sent by email to the members of the Brazilian Association of Otolaryngology-Head Neck Surgery. This survey has initially been conducted by the laryngopharyngeal reflux study group of young otolaryngologists of the International Federation of Otolaryngological Societies. Results: According to the survey responders, the prevalence of laryngopharyngeal reflux was estimated to be 26.8% of patients consulting in otolaryngology and the most common symptoms were globus sensation, throat clearing, cough and stomach acid reflux. Nasal obstruction, Eustachian tube dysfunction, acute and chronic otitis media, vocal fold nodules and hemorrhage were considered not associated with laryngopharyngeal reflux by the majority of responders. About 2/3 of Brazilian otolaryngologists based the diagnosis of laryngopharyngeal reflux on the assessment of both symptoms and findings and a positive response to empiric therapeutic trials. Proton pump inhibitor utilized once or twice daily, was the most commonly used therapeutic scheme. Only 21.4% of Brazilian otolaryngologists have heard about nonacid and mixed laryngopharyngeal reflux and the awareness about the usefulness of multichannel intraluminal impedance pH monitoring (MII-pH) was minimal; 30.5% of responders did not consider themselves as well-informed about laryngopharyngeal reflux. Conclusion: Although the laryngopharyngeal reflux-related symptoms, main diagnostic and treatment approaches referred by Brazilian otolaryngologists are consistent with the literature, the survey identified some limitations, such as the insufficient awareness of the role of laryngopharyngeal reflux in many otolaryngological conditions and of the possibility of non-acid or mixed reflux in refractory cases. Future studies are needed to establish international recommendations for the management of laryngopharyngeal reflux disease.

Objective: To assess the adherence to a set of evidence-based recommendations to support mental health during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and its association with depressive and anxiety symptoms. Methods: A team of health workers and researchers prepared the recommendations, formatted into three volumes (1: COVID-19 prevention; 2: Healthy habits; 3: Biological clock and sleep). Participants were randomized to receive only Volume 1 (control), Volumes 1 and 2, Volumes 1 and 3, or all volumes. We used a convenience sample of Portuguese-speaking participants over age 18 years. An online survey consisting of sociodemographic and behavioral questionnaires and mental health instruments (Patient Health Questionnaire-9 [PHQ-9] and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 [GAD-7]) was administered. At 14 and 28 days later, participants were invited to complete follow-up surveys, which also included questions regarding adherence to the recommendations. A total of 409 participants completed the study – mostly young adult women holding university degrees. Results: The set of recommendations contained in Volumes 2 and 3 was effective in protecting mental health, as suggested by significant associations of adherence with PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores (reflecting anxiety and depression symptoms, respectively). Conclusion: The recommendations developed in this study could be useful to prevent negative mental health effects in the context of the pandemic and beyond.

RESUMO Objetivo conhecer sentimentos de crianças/adolescentes com Doença Falciforme percebidos pelas mães e identificar sentimentos vivenciados por mães de crianças/adolescentes com Doença Falciforme após o surgimento da pandemia da COVID-19. Método estudo qualitativo, desenvolvido numa cidade do estado da Bahia com a participação de 19 mães de crianças e adolescentes com Doença Falciforme. Os dados foram obtidos entre março e abril de 2020 mediante entrevistas semiestruturadas via WhatsApp, as quais, após transcritas, foram submetidas a análise temática, análise fatorial e análise de similitude. Resultados as participantes referiram sentir sobrecarga ao dedicarem tempo integral aos cuidados dos filhos, que se mostraram mais vulneráveis e instáveis emocionalmente devido ao distanciamento social. Diante disso, estratégias foram adotadas pelas mães, tencionando a adaptação e a diminuição das tensões - proporcionadas pelo contexto da pandemia - nelas mesmas e em seus filhos. Conclusão as mães de crianças/adolescentes com Doença Falciforme necessitam ser apoiadas e instrumentalizadas para que se implementem cuidados centrados na dimensão psicoemocional e se busque ajuda especializada, principalmente diante daqueles sentimentos deflagrados em razão da necessidade de manter a rotina terapêutica dos seus filhos em meio à pandemia.

ABSTRACT Objective to know the feelings of children/adolescents with Sickle Cell Disease perceived by mothers and to identify feelings experienced by mothers of children/adolescents with Sickle Cell Disease after the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic. Method qualitative study, developed in a city in the state of Bahia with the participation of 19 mothers of children and adolescents with Sickle Cell Disease. Data were obtained between March and April 2020 through semi-structured interviews via WhatsApp calls, which were submitted to thematic, factor and similarity analysis after transcription. Results the participants reported feeling overloaded due to dedicating themselves full time to the care of their children, who were more vulnerable and emotionally unstable due to social distancing. Therefore, strategies were adopted by mothers, intending to help adaptation and stress reduction - provided by the context of the pandemic - for themselves and in their children. Conclusion mothers of children/adolescents with Sickle Cell Disease need to be supported and instrumentalized in order to implement care centered on the psychoemotional dimension and seek specialized help, especially regarding feelings triggered due to the need to maintain the therapeutic routine of their children in the midst of the pandemic.

Abstract Objective Understand the experiences of being an adolescent with sickle cell disease. Methods Qualitative study, conducted at a reference service in the state of Bahia, Brazil between March and June 2018. Ten adolescents with sickle cell disease participated. The data were obtained through drawings-and-stories with a theme and semi-structured interviews and analyzed based on Grounded Theory. Results The experience of adolescents with sickle cell disease is represented by the core category of “trying to be a normal adolescent, despite the restrictions and discrimination the sickle cell disease imposes”, and five other categories: “Feeling different from other adolescents”, when they see that their growth has altered, that they experience medical problems and compare themselves to other adolescents, “Living with restrictions in their daily routine”, of physical and food-related restrictions, required in self-care and disease management to achieve quality of life, “Living in bad situations”, in the experience of pain, constant hospital visits, fear of death and uncertainty about the future, “Feeling like a normal adolescent”, when they were able to maintain their social activities, including school, friends, and family, and “Realizing the stigma”, when they fear the discrimination and adopt ways to hide that they have the disease. Conclusion By seeking to be a normal adolescent, the participants aspired to take control over their own lives, avoid breaks from the routine and meet social expectations, protecting their identity from labels and discrimination.

Abstract Aim: This study aims to compare a functional training protocol and Mat Pilates for individuals with Parkinson's disease and to evaluate the effects on motor symptoms, as well as non-motor symptoms using a randomized controlled trial. Methods: Protocol for a randomized clinical trial in which 45 individuals with Parkinson's disease will be recruited and randomly allocated to one of three groups: (1) functional training; (2) Mat Pilates; (3) control group. Both intervention groups will have 60 min classes twice a week for 12 weeks. The primary outcome will be analyzed through motor symptoms, including balance, mobility, muscle strength, handgrip strength, flexibility, range of motion, and cardiorespiratory fitness. Secondary outcomes will include non-motor symptoms such as cognition, aging perspective, mood, anxiety, and depression. Conclusion: This will be the first randomized trial to compare the effects of functional training and Mat Pilates in a population with Parkinson's disease. It is hypothesized that improvements in motor and non-motor symptoms will be greater and more lasting after functional training and Mat Pilates interventions than those that maintain their routine activities, given the benefits of exercise and the unprecedented protocols in this disease.

Abstract Objective To describe the clinical, laboratory, and radiological characteristics, as well as the outcomes of children with MIS-C. Method Multicenter, prospective cohort study, conducted in 17 pediatric intensive care units in five states in Brazil, from March to July 2020. Patients from 1 month to 19 years who met the MIS-C diagnostic criteria were included consecutively. Results Fifty-six patients were included, with the following conditions: Kawasaki-like disease (n = 26), incomplete Kawasaki disease (n = 16), acute cardiac dysfunction (n = 10), toxic shock syndrome (n = 3), and macrophage activation syndrome (n = 1). Median age was 6.2 years (IQR 2.4−10.3), 70% were boys, 59% were non-whites, 20% had comorbidities, 48% reported a contact with COVID-19 cases, and 55% had a recent SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by RT-PCR and/or serology. Gastrointestinal symptoms were present in 71%, shock symptoms in 59%, and severe respiratory symptoms in less than 20%. -Dimer was increased in 80% and cardiac dysfunction markers in more than 75%. Treatment included immunoglobulin (89%); corticosteroids, antibiotics, and enoxaparin in about 50%; and oseltamivir and antifungal therapy in less than 10%. Only 11% needed invasive mechanical ventilation, with a median duration of five days (IQR 5–6.5). The median length of PICU stay was six days (IQR 5–11), and one death occurred (1.8%). Conclusions Most characteristics of the present MIS-C patients were similar to that of other cohorts. The present results may contribute to a broader understanding of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children and its short-term consequences. Long-term multidisciplinary follow-up is needed, since it is not known whether these patients will have chronic cardiac impairment or other sequelae.

RESUMO INTRODUÇÃO: A detecção do papilomavírus humano (HPV) auxilia os tratamentos para pacientes que apresentam manifestações clínicas e limita as consequências futuras para os que apresentam infecções assintomáticas. OBJETIVOS: Avaliar a sensibilidade da reação em cadeia da polimerase (PCR) para detecção de HPV em diferentes amostras. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: Quarenta e nove amostras de pacientes pediátricos foram obtidas por esfoliação da mucosa oral com uma escova estéril. O ácido desoxirribonucleico (DNA) dessas amostras foi utilizado para detecção de HPV por PCR convencional e PCR em tempo real (qPCR). RESULTADOS: Das 49 amostras, oito eram de pacientes clinicamente diagnosticados com papilomatose laríngea; porém, tanto na PCR convencional quanto na qPCR, apenas uma amostra apresentou amplificação do fragmento esperado. DISCUSSÃO: Esses resultados sugerem que o tipo de amostra, a metodologia empregada na coleta, a metodologia de extração empregada, a localização anatômica da lesão e os oligonucleotídeos utilizados influenciam fortemente a sensibilidade da detecção de HPV por PCR. CONCLUSÃO: Mais estudos são necessários para determinar as melhores técnicas de coleta e processamento das amostras a fim de que a detecção de HPV por PCR seja mais eficiente.

ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: The human papillomavirus (HPV) detection favors treatments for patients with clinical manifestations and limits future consequences for those with asymptomatic infections. OBJECTIVES: Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the sensitivity of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for HPV detection from oral mucosa samples, of asymptomatic patients and patients with clinical manifestations of laryngeal papillomatosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 49 pediatric patient samples were obtained by exfoliation of the oral mucosa with a sterile brush. The deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) samples was extracted and used for HPV detection, using GP5 and GP6 oligonucleotides, by conventional PCR and qPCR reactions. RESULTS: Among the 49 samples, eight were from patients clinically diagnosed with laryngeal papillomatosis, but in both conventional PCR and qPCR technic, only one sample had presented positivity. DISCUSSION: These results suggest that the sample type, the methodology used to collect, the extraction methodology used, the anatomical location of the lesion and the oligonucleotides used; all factors strongly influence the sensitivity of HPV detection by PCR methodology. CONCLUSION: Thus, more studies are needed to better determine the sample collection, and the processing techniques present more reproducibility on PCR detection.

RESUMEN INTRODUCCIÓN: El virus del papiloma humano (VPH) ayuda los tratamientos de pacientes que presentan manifestaciones clínicas y limita las consecuencias futuras para aquellos con infecciones asintomáticas. OBJETIVOS: Evaluar la sensibilidad de la reacción en cadena de la polimerasa (PCR) para detectar VPH en diferentes muestras. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Cuarenta y nueve muestras de pacientes pediátricos se obtuvieron por exfoliación de la mucosa oral con un cepillo estéril. Se utilizó el ácido desoxirribonucleico (ADN) de esas muestras para detectar VPH por PCR convencional y PCR cuantitativa en tiempo real (qPCR). RESULTADOS: Entre las 49 muestras, ocho eran de pacientes clínicamente diagnosticados con papilomatosis laríngea; sin embargo, tanto en la PCR convencional como en la qPCR, sólo una muestra presentó amplificación del fragmento esperado. DISCUSIÓN: Eses resultados sugieren que el tipo de muestra, el método empleado en la recolección, el método de extracción, la ubicación anatómica de la lesión y los oligonucleótidos utilizados influyen fuertemente la sensibilidad de detección de VPH por PCR. CONCLUSIÓN: Se necesita mayor investigación para determinar las mejores técnicas de recolección y procesamiento de muestras para que la detección de VPH por PCR sea más eficiente.
