Many therapies have been studied for the treatment of viral warts, but none are uniformly effective. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of conventional cotton wool bud with that of melamine foam sponge as applicators in the treatment of warts with liquid nitrogen. A paired comparison study was conducted in 27 patients with at least two similar clinical types of warts. Similar clinical lesions were allocated to have liquid nitrogen applied with cotton wool bud or melamine foam sponge. Mean size reduction rate after the first treatment was 30.5% in the cotton wool bud group and 59.1% in the melamine foam sponge group. Mean number of total treatments was 3.05 in the cotton wool bud group and 2.29 in the melamine foam sponge group. Melamine foam sponge was found to be more effective in comparison to conventional cryotherapy with cotton wool bud.
针对病毒性疣的治疗已经开展了许多疗法的研究，但无一具有一致的疗效。本研究的目的是比较传统棉棒与三聚氰胺泡沫海绵作为涂抹工具在液氮治疗疣时的疗效。对27例患有至少两种相似临床类型疣的患者进行了配对比较研究。将相似的临床损害分配为用棉棒或三聚氰胺泡沫海绵涂抹液氮。首次治疗后，棉棒组的平均大小缩小率为30.5%，三聚氰胺泡沫海绵组为59.1%。棉棒组的平均总治疗次数为3.05次，三聚氰胺泡沫海绵组为2.29次。结果发现，与传统的棉棒冷冻疗法相比，三聚氰胺泡沫海绵更有效。
