To evaluate the prevalence of HPV infection among women from three districts of Tamil Nadu (Erode, Salem, and Namakkal).
Between January 27, 2007, and December 15, 2009, 1800 women aged 20-70years who had normal cervical cytology were enrolled into a cross-sectional study. Participants completed interviews and provided first void urine samples for assessment of HPV infection.
Among 1699 eligible samples, 179 (10.5%) were HPV positive. HPV16 was the most common type (affecting 68 [4.0%] women), followed by HPV6 (58 [3.4%]). Among the 179 HPV-positive women, 71 (39.7%) were aged 36-45years. An annual income of less than 25 000 INR was significantly associated with HPV infection in all three districts (P<0.05). Regular intercourse was also associated with HPV in Erode and Salem (P<0.05).
Screening and prophylactic vaccines containing HPV16 and HPV6 should be promoted in western Tamil Nadu.
评估泰米尔纳德邦三个地区(埃罗德、塞勒姆和纳马卡尔)女性人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)感染的流行情况。
在2007年1月27日至2009年12月15日期间,1800名年龄在20至70岁之间、宫颈细胞学检查正常的女性被纳入一项横断面研究。参与者完成访谈并提供首次晨尿样本以评估HPV感染情况。
在1699份合格样本中,179份(10.5%)HPV呈阳性。HPV16是最常见的类型(感染68名[4.0%]女性),其次是HPV6(58名[3.4%])。在179名HPV阳性女性中,71名(39.7%)年龄在36至45岁之间。在所有三个地区,年收入低于25000印度卢比与HPV感染显著相关(P<0.05)。在埃罗德和塞勒姆,规律性交也与HPV感染相关(P<0.05)。
应在泰米尔纳德邦西部推广包含HPV16和HPV6的筛查及预防性疫苗。
