One possibility is that the immune system weakens with age, making people more vulnerable to latent infections. Another theory is that study participants in their 60s grew up during an era of sexual permissiveness that kiL that Tt loves art. I love knowing that I have to do with oral sex practices, Gillison said. Among people who had more than 20 sexual partners, the prevalence of oral HPV was 20 percent. But the researchers found it in less than 1 percent of people who said they were virgins and in less than 4 percent of people who said they had never performed oral sex. Researchers also noted age differences; those in the early 60s had the highest prevalence at .4 percent. That is in marked contrast to cervical HPV infection, which is most common among women in their early 20s. 'orko the family full of artists but said that though she didnt get the same gene, she still the virus in the mouth as accurately as in the cervix, was 10 years in the making. Gillisons team found that the overall prevalence of oral HPV was 6.9 percent far less than the rate of genital HPV infection in reproductive-ag- e women, which can be as high as 42 percent among women in their 20s. The infection rate varied substantially among diffeient groups. For instance, 10.1 percent of men in the study had oral HPV, compared with 3.6 percent of women. The reason for the difference is unknown but it could tlintinued from ion community about art, Jensen said.We want to During this walk, Main get the tard out that we Streets galleries stay are here.

To get a handle on HPVs role in oral cancers, Gillison and her colleagues analyzed data from 5,579 people ages 14 to 69 who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 2009 and 2010. The NHANES survey includes a detailed questionnaire and a physical examination, e including the first use of a oral rinse from which researchers were able to extract cells to test for HPV infection.

One of the art walks people can walk on their own with the brochure, and the other is four times a year on the last Friday of each season.

People who came of age during the sexual revolution may have had more sexual partners than other age groups, such as groups that came of age during the HIV epidemic, Gillison said. In the meantime, the new data should give parents more to think about as they consider whether to vaccinate their children especially their sons, Gillison said. HPV vaccination is recommended for females ages 9 to 26 and males ages 9 to 21. Some parents may have felt that the risk of HPV infection wasnt relevant to them, she said. But this study shows in 10 boys has an infection that can lead to a cancer. (c)20 2 the Los Angeles Times.
