Molecular characterization of high-risk humanpapillomavirus genotypes in women with or without cervical lesions at VIA/VILI in Kara, Togo

Abstract: Background: Persistent infection with high-risk (HR) papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes plays a central role in the pathogenesis of invasive cervical cancer. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the prevalence and distribution of HR-HPV among women with or without cervical lesions at VIA/VILI in Togo. Methods: Cervical samples were collected from 238 women with or without cervical lesions at VIA / VILI and[c3] DNA [c4]was extracted and analyzed by real-time multiplex PCR. Logistic regression analy… Show more

“…This implies that HPV genotype distribution is diverse at different places and periods even within the same population [54]. Similarly, the distribution of HR-HPVs among women in other African countries was reported to heterogeneous [25,49,52,55,56].…”

“…For instance, HPV16 is not the first-ranked genotype from cervical samples in Kenya [53], Togo [51,56], and Nigeria [22]. According to studies, not only HPV16 but also HPV18 is not that important in some African countries [51,56].…”
