Human papillomavirus infection in Beijing, People's Republic of China: a population-based study

Abstract: We interviewed and examined a representative, randomly selected sample of 5552 sexually active women aged 25 -54 years. Cervical cell samples were analysed for HPV DNA by a MY09/11-based PCR assay. RESULTS: Human papillomavirus prevalence was 6.7% overall and 4.8% among women without cervical abnormalities. Of the 21 subtypes identified, HPV16 was the commonest type (2.6% overall; 39.1% of HPV-positive women), followed by HPV 58 (1.0%), 33 (0.8%), 43 (0.7%) and 56 (0.7%). High-risk HPV types predominated in al… Show more

“…The overall prevalence of HPV infection was 10.19%, which was higher than the reported HPV prevalences of 8.3% (494/5936) in Qujing in Yunnan Province, Southwest China [10], and 6.7% in Beijing, China [13]. In studies conducted in developing countries, the prevalence of HR-HPV infection was 9.0% in a population-based study conducted in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam [14], and in urban Tunis, the most frequent HPV type among women 18-69 years of age was HPV-16 (3.27%) [15], which was far higher than the prevalence of HPV-16 infection in Hetian (0.3%).…”

“…Few population-based studies exist describing the epidemiology of HPV and cervical cancer among Chinese women younger than 25 years old as well as their knowledge of HPV and attitudes towards HPV vaccination [7][8][9][10][11][12][13] . Our study bridged this gap, demonstrating the high cervical cancer disease burden of sampled Chinese women aged 18-25.…”

“…Multiple large population-based studies have been published about HPV, CIN, and cervical cancer prevalence in China that indicated the HPV prevalence ranges from 6% in Beijing [13] to 18-23 percent in Shanxi province [7][8] . However, these studies focused on women aged 35 to 50, and those that included women younger than 25 years generally categorize them as a subgroup with sample size ranged from 40 to 56 [9][10][11] .…”

“…18 Similar findings were reported in Korea and China, where HPV33, À52 and À58 are more common. 18,21,22 Therefore, we did not genotype for HPV45, and the present study is limited by a lack of data on HPV45. Another potential limitation of this study is that the study population did not include women with normal cytology.…”
