Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a major cause of cervical cancer. HPV vaccine has been shown to be highly effective in preventing HPV infection, and understanding the genotypes of HPV infection can guide the utilization of HPV vaccine. This epidemiological study aimed to investigate the genotype distribution of HPV in HPV-positive female patients in Changzhou. This study enrolled HPV-positive female patients admitted at the Affiliated Changzhou No. 2 People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were enrolled in this study. HPV genotypes were identified via standard HPV DNA testing. The cohort comprised 5738 patients, that the predominant genotypes were HPV52 (13.4%), HPV16 (9.6%), HPV58 (8.8%), HPV81 (8.6%), and HPV53 (7.7%). HPV infection prevalence was the highest among those aged 41-45 y (16.6%), followed by those aged 31-35 y (15.1%) and 36-40 y (15.1%). In total, 46.8% of infections were found in women aged 31-45 y. The main genotypes of HPV infection upon physical examination or diagnosis of cervicitis and cervical cancer were HPV52,16, 58, 81, and 53. HPV52,16, 58, 81, and 53 are the most predominant genotypes of HPV infection. Further, HPV infection is most prevalent among women aged 31-45 y. Our findings provide experimental evidence for guiding HPV vaccination policy.
