Schoolgirls in two Ugandan districts were recently vaccinated against human papillomavirus that causes most cervical cancer. This cross-sectional comparative study used mixed research methods to assess influence of human papillomavirus vaccination on adolescents' worrisome thoughts about being vaccinated and psychological distress. Vaccination predicted worrisome thoughts among the recently vaccinated (adjusted odds ratio: 1.65, confidence interval: 1.13-2.41; = 0.01). Vaccination predicted distress (1.75, confidence interval: 1.09-2.82; = 0.02), particularly among those recently vaccinated (1.92, confidence interval: 1.27-2.89; = 0.001) and those who experienced worrisome thoughts (1.80, confidence interval: 1.06-3.07; = 0.02). Parental communication mitigated distress (0.50, confidence interval: 0.35-0.72; = 0.000).
乌干达两个地区的女学生最近接种了针对导致大多数宫颈癌的人乳头瘤病毒的疫苗。这项横断面比较研究采用混合研究方法,以评估人乳头瘤病毒疫苗接种对青少年对接种疫苗的担忧想法和心理困扰的影响。疫苗接种预示着近期接种者会出现担忧想法(调整后的优势比:1.65,置信区间:1.13 - 2.41;P = 0.01)。疫苗接种预示着会出现困扰(1.75,置信区间:1.09 - 2.82;P = 0.02),特别是在近期接种者中(1.92,置信区间:1.27 - 2.89;P = 0.001)以及那些有担忧想法的人中(1.80,置信区间:1.06 - 3.07;P = 0.02)。父母的沟通减轻了困扰(0.50,置信区间:0.35 - 0.72;P = 0.000)。
