A new study reveals that rabbit and mice papilloma viruses are capable of spreading via contaminated blood from one to another. The study from Pennsylvania State researchers titled, "Papillomavirus can be transmitted through the blood and produce infections in blood recipients: Evidence from two animal models" was published in the recent issue of the journal Emerging Microbes & Infections. The researchers warned that this study could be a basis for the hypothesis that HPV could also be transmitted between humans via blood.

Although pediatricians and family physicians often recommend HPV vaccination, recent survey data suggest that these providers do not always use the strongest recommendation and do not always recommend the vaccine for younger adolescents. "Our data show that many providers are not introducing the HPV vaccine in the same way as they do the other adolescent vaccines — TdaP and meningococcal conjugate vaccine — that are also recommended at ages 11 to 12 years," Allison Kempe, MD, MPH, director of the Center for Research in Implementation Science and Prevention and director of the Children's Outcomes Research Program at the University of Colorado School of Medicine, told Infectious Diseases in Children. "A 'presumptive' recommendation means you introduce all the vaccines in the same way with the assumption that there won't be resistance to them. This results in higher rates of vaccine acceptance by parents."

For its first few years on the market, the human papillomavirus vaccine was approved only for young girls. Over time, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has broadened its approval to include boys, as well as adults up to age 45 — allowing more people to get the cancer-preventing vaccine, but also breeding confusion about who should get vaccinated and when.

Among Americans aged 18 to 26, two-thirds of men and one-third of women still do not know that the human papillomavirus is the leading cause of cervical cancer, a new survey finds. The survey findings also showed that more than 70% of American adults don't know that the common sexually transmitted infection can cause anal, penile and oral cancers. The findings come from the Health Information National Trend Survey, which surveyed more than 2,500 men and nearly 3,700 women.

From improving outcomes in children with brain cancer to lowering the risk of damage to the brainstem in children with central nervous system tumors, a pair of new studies published recently add to the growing body of research showing the potential benefits of proton therapy. The first study, published in Pediatric Blood and Cancer, found that very young children who received proton therapy for medulloblastoma had higher rates of overall survival and recurrence free survival compared to patients who received intense chemotherapy without radiotherapy.
