Human Papillomavirus Screening in North Indian Women

Population-based Cervical Cancer Screening Using High-risk HPV DNA Test and Liquid-based Cytology in Northern Thailand

“…Considering population-based studies in which HC2 testing was used, the HC2-positive prevalence of 7.1% in our study is comparable to the reported prevalence from countries in Europe and North America (6.3-8.1%) (Cuzick et al, 2003;Leinonen et al, 2008;Castle et al, 2009;Ogilvie et al, 2012;Zorzi et al, 2013), while it is higher than the prevalence in the Netherlands (4.5%) (Bulkmans et al, 2007) but is lower than that in India (10.3-16.2%) (Sankaranarayanan et al, 2009;Pandey et al, 2012;Rai et al, 2014) and China (9.9-27.5%) (Zhao et al, 2010;Li et al, 2013). Population-based studies for HPV detection by PCR techniques also have demonstrated high overall HPV prevalence in Latin America and Africa, where cervical cancer incidence is high (Herrero et al, 2000;Franceschi et al, 2006).…”

Genotype Distribution and Behavioral Risk Factor Analysis of Human Papillomavirus Infection in Uyghur Women

“…Pandey et al performed a human papillomavirus screening in north Indian women, and they reported that the HPV incidence in their study was 11.7% (Pandey et al, 2012). In prevent study, the prevalence of HPV prevalence of Uyghur women in Xinjiang was 8.84%, high-risk was 7.25%, and low-risk was 1.59%; The results were in agreement with Guzhalinuer' s study result (Guzalinuer et al, 2007), she found that HPV prevalence of Xinjiang Uyghur women was 7.0%, and both showed a lower rate of infection.…”
