Screening for HPV infection in exfoliated cervical cells of women from different ethnic groups in Yili, Xinjiang, China
We investigated the infection status and genotype distribution of human papillomavirus (HPV) in women of different ages and various ethnic groups in the Yili region, Xinjiang, China. We checked the HPV genotypes of 3,445 samples of exfoliated cervical cells using the PCR–reverse dot blot method. The...

Sumario: | We investigated the infection status and genotype distribution of human papillomavirus (HPV) in women of different ages and various ethnic groups in the Yili region, Xinjiang, China. We checked the HPV genotypes of 3,445 samples of exfoliated cervical cells using the PCR–reverse dot blot method. The total infection rate of HPV was 25.60% (882/3,445). The ethnic stratification showed that the infection rates were 22.87% (196/857) in Uygur, 21.55% (122/566) in Kazak, and 27.89% (564/2,022) in Han individuals. The most prevalent high-risk genotypes were HPV16, HPV52, and HPV53 in Uygur and Kazak and HPV16, HPV52, and HPV58 in Han ethnic groups. The age stratification showed that the infection rates in Han, Uygur, and Kazak women were up to 40.9% (61/149) in those aged 26–30 years, 41.5% (22/53) in those over 61 years old, and 30.2% (29/96) in those 46–50 years old, respectively. Therefore, HPV infection and HPV genotype distribution varied among the different age groups of the three ethnic groups. |
