“…In our study, around 13.8% of participants with normal cytology had HPV infection. This prevalence is similar to those in all previous reports (8.0-14.4%) in eastern Asian populations, 8,9,11,16,17,26,27 with the exception of studies in clinics by Jeng et al 14,15 Although the cervical cells in this study were collected in 1991, the HPV prevalence was similar to those reported in recent studies. Women in study townships received opportunistic Pap screening and had no knowledge about HPV at the enrollment; thus, their participation in this study was not confounded by their experiences of cervical neoplasia and HPV screening.…”

“…In our study, prevalence of HPV infection in women with normal and abnormal cell Pap smear was 4.08% and 20% age between 26-39 y old women but, the HPV prevalence in USA among 14-59 y old women was 26.8% [11]. Also, the prevalence of HPV infection in different age's group of women is 4% to 19.3% in different countries [12][13][14][15]. Other studies in Asia, reported the prevalence of HPV infections approximately 10%, 10.9%, 6.3% and 23.6% in South Korea, Southern Vietnam, Thailand and China respectively [8,9,16].…”

“…1,2 The unusually high prevalence of HPV 52 and 58 has been reported in Chinese populations living in China 3,4 and Taiwan. [5][6][7][8] In a previous report of our study, the prevalence of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) or worse lesions among participants with single-type infection of HPV 16, HPV 58 and HPV 52 at study entry was 31.9, 35.7 and 13.3%, respectively. 9 The participants infected with HPV 16, HPV 58 or HPV 52 had an increased prevalence of cervical cancer and carcinoma in situ (CIS).…”

“…In several previous studies, the high prevalence of HPV 52 and HPV 58 has been reported in Chinese populations. [3][4][5]7,8,29 Our study was the first comprehensive study on the genetic variations of E6-E7-LCR of HPV 52 and 58 and their association with cervical neoplasia in Taiwan.…”
