Objective To evaluate the application value of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV)DNA de-tection and ThinPrep liquid-based cytology testing(TCT)in cervical disease screening.Methods Cervical specimens of women with cervical lesions in a hospital between October 2012 and December 2013 were taken and performed hu-man papillomavirus DNA genotyping (HPV DNA)and ThinPrep liquid-based cytology testing(TCT).Positive pa-tients were performed colposcopy pathological detection.HPV DNA positive rates among different TCT groups, and different cervical lesion groups were compared,the sensitivity and specificity of TCT and HPV DNA detection, as well as differences between separate and joint detection were also compared.Results The positive rate of HPV DNA was 28.07% (1 045/3 723),most were HR-HPV (21 .57%,n=803),the major HR-HPV genotypes were HPV 16,58,52,and 18 type.HR-HPV positive rates were statistically different among different age groups(χ2 =31 .74,P <0.001 ),positive rate was highest in 20 -30 year old age group .Positive rate of TCT was 13.46%(n=501),a total of 971 patients were performed pathological detection,293 were positive.Patients were divided according to different TCT and different lesion type,χ2 testing of HR-HPV DNA positive rate showed that positive rate of HR-HPV had a increasing tendency with the increase in severity of diseases(all P <0.01).Pathological de-
tection was as a gold standard ,the sensitivity of HR-HPV DNA and TCT was 90.44%(265/293)and 85.32%(250/293)respectively,the sensitivity of joint HR-HPV DNA detection and TCT was 95.90%.In positive patho-logical group,the detection rate of TCT and HR-HPV DNA was 85.32% and 90.44%,respectively,joint detec-tion rate was 95.90%,the difference among three groups was significant (χ2 =18.185,P <0.001).Joint detection rate was higher than separate detection rate of TCT or HPV DNA.Conclusion HPV DNA detection is a useful supplement for cervical cancer screening,HPV DNA detection combined with TCT can reduce the misdiagnosis rate.
