HPV prevalence and genotype distribution in 2,306 patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma in central and eastern China.
Frontiers in public health
Background:To explore the positivity rate and genotype distribution of human papillomavirus (HPV) in cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) tissues in central and eastern China and to provide theoretical basis for cervical cancer screening and prophylactic HPV vaccine development in China. Methods:DNA was extracted from paraffin-embedded tissues of CSCC samples and exfoliated cervical cells of cervical cancer screening populations. 23 HPV genotypes were detected by combining polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and reverse dot hybridized gene chip detection technology in 2,306 CSCC tissues and 10,245 cervical cancer screening populations. The genotype distribution of HPV infection was analyzed. Results:The overall infection rate of HPVs in 2,306 CSCC patients was 92.71%. The frequency of single-type HPV infection and multiple-type HPV infection were 86.48% and 13.51%, respectively. The most common HPV genotypes detected in Chinese CSCC tissues were HPV-16, HPV-18, HPV-31, HPV-33, HPV-45, HPV-52, HPV-58, and HPV-59. The overall positivity rate of these eight high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) genotypes in HPV-positive CSCC was as high as 96.91%. Of which the positivity rate of seven HR-HPV genotypes related to nine-valent HPV vaccines in HPV-positive CSCC was 95.09%. Meanwhile, the overall infection rates of HR-HPV and low-risk HPV (LR-HPV) in female aged 35-64 years who underwent cervical cancer screening were 13.16% and 1.32%, respectively. The high-frequency HR-HPV genotypes in cervical cancer screening women were HPV-52, HPV-58, HPV-16, HPV-53, HPV-68, HPV-39, HPV-51, and HPV-56, with positivity rates of 2.25%, 1.60%, 1.31%, 1.22%, 0.93%, 0.92%, 0.78%, and 0.74%, respectively. Conclusion:Among women screened for cervical cancer in China, detecting the 8 high-frequency HR-HPV genotypes can reduce technical difficulty and reagent costs, while also improving the efficiency and effectiveness of cervical cancer screening. HPV genotyping assists gynecologists in assessing the risk of HR-HPV-positive cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and guiding them in implementing appropriate interventions. Furthermore, HPV genotyping is helpful for doctors to follow up HR-HPV-positive women and to evaluate the protective effect of HPV vaccine.

Analysis of age-specified and genotype distribution of HPV multiple infections in the Chinese population.
Scientific reports
Multiple infections are a key component of HPV pathogenesis and have a direct impact on how an infection turns out. It's crucial to look at the associations between HPV multiple infections and both age and HPV genotypes in the Chinese population, searching for the causative factors of multiple infections with a view to providing new ideas for the treatment and prevention of multiple infections. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the data of HPV infections among outpatients from the 2019 year to the 2021 year of Shandong Maternal and Child Health Hospital. Analyzed the correlation between HPV multiple infections and age using logistic regression. Differences in the percentage of multiple infections between age groups were compared using the chi-square test. The chi-square test compared the differences in the distribution of 15 common HPV genotypes in mono- versus multiple infections. A two-dimensional matrix presented the frequency of HPV genotype combinations. Logistics regression analysis showed that age was significantly associated with the occurrence of multiple infections, with a dominance ratio OR 1.026 (95% CI 1.02-1.04). Interestingly, the proportion of HPV multiple infections among HPV-positive individuals increases with age in people older than 30 years of age. The chi-square test showed there was a difference in the distribution of HPV genotypes between multiple infections and mono- HPV infection (χ = 76.4; p = 0.000), a difference in the composition of HPV genotypes for dual versus single infections (χ = 90.6; p = 0.000) and a difference in HPV genotypes for triple versus single infections (χ = 56.7; p = 0.000). A 2 × 2 matrix showed that the combination of HPV52/HPV58 (30; 6.4%) was the combination of the highest frequency of infection for dual infections; The HPV52/HPV58 (21; 4.8%) combination was the highest frequency of HPV triple infection combination. HPV multiple infections were positively correlated with age; increasing age was positively correlated with the proportion of HPV multiple infections in the total infected population; the distribution of the 15 common genotypes of HPV differed between multiple infections and single infections; and HPV52:58 was a common type of infection combination in the Shandong population.

The Prevalence of Cervical HPV Infection and Genotype Distribution in 856,535 Chinese Women with Normal and Abnormal Cervical Lesions: A Systemic Review.
Journal of cytology
Cervical cancer is the commonest cancer affecting women worldwide. During the last decades, the incidence and mortality rates of cervical cancer have increased in China. This research aims to assess the overall and genotype-specific prevalence of the human papillomavirus (HPV) infection among Chinese women with normal cervix, considering age, and geographic location. We selected studies about HPV prevalence in women from Chinese in Mainland China with normal cervix and abnormal cervical lesions, published between January 1995 and December 2020. The HPV prevalence was analyzed using meta-analysis based on the following: cytological and histological diagnoses, regions, and ages. The overall HPV prevalence in 856,535 women was 14.3%, 95% confidence interval (CI) and it increased from 8.2% to 16.5% in studies published from 2006 to 2020. The prevalence of high-risk (HR) and low-risk (LR) HPV types was 11.3% and 2.7%, respectively. The commonest types of HPV in women from Mainland China were HPV 16 (2.6%), 52 (2.4%), 58 (1.7%), 18 (0.9%), and 33 (0.8%). According to the geographical analysis, the prevalence of different HPV genotypes varied by region, Central China had the highest overall HPV prevalence. HPV16 was the commonest type in all the regions except in South China and East China, where HPV52 was found to be common. Regarding diagnosis, the HPV infection led to cervical cancer diagnosis by cytology and histology with 90.1% and 91.5% rates, respectively. HPV16 and HPV18 were common types associated with cervical cancer diagnosed by cytology and histology. HPV 16, 58, 52, 18, and 33 were the commonest types found in women with normal cervixes from Mainland China. The prevalence of different HPV genotypes varied by age group and region.

Correlation between human papillomavirus (HPV) type and histology of warts.
Gross G,Pfister H,Hagedorn M,Gissmann L
The Journal of investigative dermatology
Forty warts from different patients and of different clinical type were examined histologically and virologically. Eight lesions were found to be associated with human papillomavirus type 1 (HPV 1), 15 tumors were induced by HPV 2, HPV 3 was detected 4 times, HPV 4 twice, and HPV 6 eleven times. HPV 3, HPV 4, and HPV 6 induced warts revealed a correlation between histology and virus type. They are characterized by the so called "edematous type clear cells". In HPV 3 associated flat warts pycnotic nuclei were mainly localized in the center of large vacuoles. In genital warts sickle shaped nuclei were pushed to the margin of the vacuolized cells. The histology of HPV 1 and HPV 2 induced warts was more heterogenous. With one exception HPV 1-induced lesions represented typical myrmecia warts, varying in the number and shape of inclusion bodies. HPV 2 associated common warts, however, revealed 3 very distinct histologic features: (1) Inclusion wart typical for HPV 1, (2) Classical common wart with marked condensation of keratohyalin granules, (3) Warts with extreme vacuolization of squamous and granular cells leading to a honeycomb-like picture.

[High-grade lesions probability in ASCUS HPV positive patient according to HPV type].
Gynecologie, obstetrique, fertilite & senologie
OBJECTIVES:The aim of our study was to assess the proportion of high-grade histological lesions, according to HPV type, in patients referred for colposcopy involving a positive HPV-HR test and ASC-US cytology. METHODS:This is a retrospective descriptive study of asymptomatic patients aged 25 to 65 with a positive HPV-HR test and ASC-US cytology. Data were collected at the Nord Franche-Comté Hospital from September 2019 to February 2022. The primary outcome was the proportion of high-grade histological lesions in patients with ASC-US cytology combined to HPV 16 or 18 (associated or not with other HPV type), compared with HPV no 16 no 18. RESULTS:Among the 298 patients included, 67% were HPV no 16 no 18, 22% HPV 16 associated or not with others and 11% HPV 18 associated or not with others. We found significantly fewer high-grade lesions in patients with ASC-US cytology and HPV no 16 no 18 than in patients with HPV 16 or 18 (8.5% versus 22.7%, P<0.01). In patients presenting an ASC-US cytology with HPV no 16, no 18: 53% of the biopsies found no histological lesion compared with 30% for the other HPVs (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:We have highlighted the reality of colposcopists: a high ratio of normal coloscopy associated with normal or low-grade biopsies, in patients with a positive HPV-HR test no 16, no 18 and ASC-US cytology.

Pattern of multiple human papillomavirus infection and type competition: An analysis in healthy Chinese women aged 18-45 years.
Human vaccines & immunotherapeutics
To assess the pattern of multiple human papillomavirus infection to predict the type replacement postvaccination. A total of 7372 women aged 18-45y from a phase III trial of an -produced HPV-16/18 vaccine were analyzed at enrollment visit before vaccination. Hierarchical multilevel logistic regression was used to evaluate HPV vaccine type and nonvaccine-type interactions with age as a covariate. Binary logistic regression was construed to compare multiple infections with single infections to explore the impact of multiple-type infections on the risk of cervical disease. Multiple HPV infections were observed in 25.2% of HPV-positive women and multiple infections were higher than expected by chance. Statistically significant negative associations were observed between HPV16 and 52, HPV18 and HPV51/52/58, HPV31 and HPV39/51/52/53/54/58, HPV33 and HPV52/58, HPV58 and HPV52, HPV6 and HPV 39/51/52/53/54/56/58. Multiple HPV infections increased the risk of CIN2+ and HSIL+, with the ORs of 2.27(95%CI: 1.41, 3.64) and 2.26 (95%CI: 1.29, 3.95) for multiple oncogenic HPV infection separately. However, no significant evidence for the type-type interactions on risk of CIN2+ or HSIL+. There is possibility of type replacement between several pairs of vaccine and nonvaccine HPV type. Multiple HPV infection increased the risk of cervical disease, but coinfection HPV types seem to follow independent disease processes. Continued post-vaccination surveillance for HPV 51/52/58 types and HPV 39/51 types separately was essential after the first and second generation of HPV vaccination implementation in China.

PURPOSE:High rate of false-positive tests is a major obstacle to use human papillomavirus (HPV) detection as a diagnostic tool for high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions or cervical cancer (HSIL+). We investigated whether type-specific viral load or physical state of HPV 16, 18, and 58 are useful biomarkers for HSIL+. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Type-specific viral loads of E6 and E2 genes in cervical cells from 240, 83, and 79 HPV 16-, 18-, and 58-infected women, respectively, were determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction. Viral loads were normalized to cellular DNA (copy/cell). Total and integrated viral loads and physical state were compared between HSIL+ and controls, and diagnostic value was determined using receiver operating characteristic analysis. RESULTS:Viral loads of HPV 16, 18, and 58 were significantly different in lesions in the same pathologic grade. High type-specific total viral loads were significantly associated with HSIL+ (odds ratio [OR], 14.065, 39.472, and 7.103 for HPV 16, 18, and 58, respectively). High integrated viral load was related to HSIL+ in women with HPV 16 (OR, 8.242), and integrated state was associated with HSIL+ in women with HPV 18 (OR, 9.443). Type-specific total viral load was significantly associated with HSIL+ (area under curve, 0.914, 0.937, and 0.971 for HPV 16, 18, and 58, respectively), indicating an excellent performance in detecting HSIL+. CONCLUSION:Type-specific total viral load may be a powerful diagnostic marker for HSIL+ in HPV 16-, 18-, and 58-infected HSIL+ lesions. If demonstrated in all other high-risk HPV types, this method can lead to a paradigm shift in the strategy of equivocal cytologic abnormalities.

OBJECTIVE:To review and characterise by clinical evaluation, immunohistochemistry and HPV typing a group of adenocarcinomas initially diagnosed with primary localisation in the cervix. Furthermore, to assess the prevalence and prognostic significance of HPV genotypes in a large series of HPV positive cervical adenocarcinomas (AC). METHODS:One hundred and seventy-one cases of adenocarcinomas (AC) with a primary localisation in the cervix and diagnosed between 1989 and 2008 in the region of Rotterdam, the Netherlands were retrieved. Slides and blocks were reviewed and immunohistochemically stained for CEA and vimentin. HPV testing for high-risk HPV (hrHPV) by PCR (GP5+/6+) and genotyping by reversed line blot were performed. RESULTS:In 113 of 171 patients HPV evaluation was possible. 101 were HPV-positive (89%) and 11 were HPV-negative (11%). The 5-year disease free survival was 80% in the HPV-positive group versus 74% in the HPV-negative group (ns). The distribution of HPV types was type 18 in 55 patients (54%), type 16 in 37 (37%), type 45 in 7 (7%), types 53 and 39 were found in 2 respective patients. 5-year overall-survival in patients with HPV-18 was not significantly worse than in patients with HPV-16 (81 versus 87%). Patients with HPV-45 had a worse 5-year survival, 57%. CONCLUSIONS:AC is hrHPV related in most cases (89%) and HPV-18 is the most frequent type (54%). With the exception of HPV-45, HPV-positivity or type in endocervical AC has no significant influence on survival.

BACKGROUND:Cervical cancer is a major public health problem in Latin America and the Caribbean (LA&C), showing some of the highest incidence and mortality rates worldwide. Information on HPV type distribution in high-grade cervical lesions (HSIL) and invasive cervical cancer (ICC) is crucial to predict the future impact of HPV16/18 vaccines and screening programmes, and to establish an appropriate post-vaccinal virologic surveillance. The aim was to assess the prevalence of HPV types in HSIL and ICC in studies in LA&C. METHODS AND FINDINGS:We performed a systematic review, following the MOOSE guidelines for systematic reviews of observational studies, and the PRISMA statement for reporting systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Inclusion criteria were at least ten cases of HSIL/ICC, and HPV-type elicitation. The search, without language restrictions, was performed in MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, LILACS from inception date to December 2009, proceedings, reference lists and consulting experts. A meta-analysis was performed using arc-sine transformations to stabilize the variance of simple proportions. Seventy-nine studies from 18 countries were identified, including 2446 cases of HSIL and 5540 of ICC. Overall, 46.5% of HSIL cases harbored HPV 16 and 8.9% HPV18; in ICC, 53.2% of cases harbored HPV 16 and 13.2% HPV 18. The next five most common types, in decreasing frequency, were HPV 31, 58, 33, 45, and 52. Study's limitations comprise the cross-sectional design of most included studies and their inherent risk of bias, the lack of representativeness, and variations in the HPV type-specific sensitivity of different PCR protocols. CONCLUSIONS:This study is the broadest summary of HPV type distribution in HSIL and ICC in LA&C to date. These data are essential for local decision makers regarding HPV screening and vaccination policies. Continued HPV surveillance would be useful, to assess the potential for changing type-specific HPV prevalence in the post-vaccination era in Latin America.

Could HPV Type 33 Be More Risky Than We Thought?
International journal of surgical pathology
The distribution of human papilloma virus (HPV) genotypes varies by country and region. HPV is the most important risk factor for cervical cancer and HPV 16/18 is the most common genotype. Other high risk HPVs (hrHPVs) other than HPV 16 and 18 contribute significantly to invasive disease. In this study, we aimed to reveal the frequency of association of HPV 16, 18 and other high-risk-HPV types with CIN 2 + (CIN 2 and above) cervical lesions in patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and to support the literature especially on the management of high-risk-HPV types other than 16 and 18. This retrospective study, which was conducted on 264 patients and 202 patients after the exclusion criteria, was conducted in the gynecology oncology outpatient clinic of the tertiary care hospital between March 2020 and May 2022. HPV 16, HPV 18 and other high-risk-HPV types with negative cytology between the ages of 25-65 were compared by taking a biopsy accompanied by colposcopy performed by the same gynecologist. As a result of colposcopy, CIN2 + patients who underwent excisional procedure were distributed according to HPV type. During this procedure, the patients who were positive for more than one HPV type were considered positive for the group with all subtypes (For example, if the patient was type 31 and 33 positive, they were included in both the 31 and 33 positive groups). The genotype distribution in the high-risk-HPV group was examined. Colposcopy results showed HPV 16 positivity in 43.3%, HPV 33 positivity in 30% and HPV 18 positivity in 10% of the patients with CIN2 + and above lesions. It was observed that the incidence of CIN2 + lesions in the patients with HPV 33 positive was higher than the incidence of a lower-grade lesion (such as CIN1 chronic cervicitis) (p < 0.05). While HPV 33 (r = 0.290, p < 0.000) results were positively correlated with CIN2 + and above lesions, there was a negative correlation with HPV 45 (r = - 0.172, p < 0.015) results (p < 0.05). It was observed that HPV 33 and HPV 45 positivity was a statistically significant variable in predicting the probability of CIN2 + lesions in colposcopy results. It was determined that a HPV 33 positive patient increased the probability of having a CIN2 + lesion by 4.999 times (p < 0.000). In the literature, the role of high-risk -HPV types other than HPV 16 and HPV 18 with negative cytology in the women at risk of cervical preinvasive lesions has still not been fully determined. According to the results of the stuy, especially in women infected with high-risk -HPV types other than HPV 16/18, the relationship between HPV 33 type and CIN 2 + lesions was found to be high, and it was seen that colposcopic biopsy should be performed immediately instead of follow-up after 1 year.
