Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the prevalence of cervical infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (hr-HPV) among the rural women of Jing-an County in Jiangxi Province. Methods:A population-based cross-sectional study was conducted among rural women of ages 35 years to 59 years in Jing-an County between May 2012 and November 2012. A total of 4 673 women were enrolled. Hybrid capture2 (hc2) was detected in 2 491 women, whereas HybriMax was detected in 2 182 women to understand the different hr-HPV types. Results:The overall hr-HPV prevalence was 11.9%. Multiple-type infections accounted for 41.5%. The most commonly seen hr-HPV type was HPV52 (2.8%), followed by HPV58, HPV16, and HPV39. No significant difference was observed in the preva-lence of hr-HPV infection between women in the mountainous and the plain areas in Jing-an County. However, the age distribution of HPV infection significantly differed (P<0.001). Conclusion:Hr-HPV infection rate in Jing-an County was close to that of other areas in China. HPV52 and HPV58 appeared to be the most prevalent HPV types and should be employed as a basis for HPV prevention in this area.
