- Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To explore the infection and distribution characteristics of human papillomavirus(HPV)inWuchang district to obtain the epidemic profile and characteristics of HPV in this area.METHODS:Female patients withsexual life history were randomly selected from Wuchang Hospital in Wuhan from July 2013 to June 2018.The patient′scervical exfoliated cells were collected and tested for HPV infection and genotyping.The infection rates of each type ofHPV were calculated and the differences in HPV infections in different age groups were compared.RESULTS:The HPVinfections rate was 18.8%.Among them,high-risk type accounted for 74.9%,significantly higher than low-risk type,accounting for 15.2%.Young women under 30 years old had the highest high-risk and low-risk infection rate(25.8%,21.0%)respectively.HPV 16(20.0%),HPV18(18.0%),and HPV52(14.0%)were top three genotypes among the high-risk types,and HPV11(33.0%),HPV6(32.0%)and HPV CP8304(26.0%)were top three genotypes among the low-risktypes.Among the positive patients,the infection rate of single and double genotype was 76.2% and 18.0%,and somepatients even had five infections.Most of the genotypes could be detected in multiple infected samples except HPV43.CONCLUSION:The prevalence of HPV in women with sexual life history in Wuchang region is 18.8% and it is mainlyhigh-risk infection.The main genotypes are HPV16,HPV18 and HPV52.The high risk population is the young womenunder 30 years old.It is of great clinical significance to strengthen HPV screening and enhance women′s self-testawareness in this region.
