Female Human Papillomavirus Infection Associated with Increased Risk of Ectopic Pregnancy: Early Evidence from Taiwan Population-Based Cohort Study
Background: This is an investigation of the human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and its correlation with the risk of ectopic pregnancy (EP). Methods: The cohort study includes 11,239 patients with newly diagnosed HPV infections between 2000 and 2012, and by using computer-generated random numbers,...

description | Background: This is an investigation of the human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and its correlation with the risk of ectopic pregnancy (EP). Methods: The cohort study includes 11,239 patients with newly diagnosed HPV infections between 2000 and 2012, and by using computer-generated random numbers, patients who do not have HPV infections are selected randomly as the comparison cohort. The HPV infection cohort is matched to comparison individuals at a 1:10 ratio by age and index year. All individuals included in the study were followed up to the point they developed EP, pulled-out from the insurance program, lost to follow-up, or until the end of 2013. A Cox proportional-hazards regression analysis was used to analyze the risk of EP with the hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) between the HPV and control cohort. Results: The adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) of EP for HPV patients relative to controls is 1.70 (95% CI = 1.04, 2.78), indicating a positive correlation between EP and HPV in the 13-year follow-up period, after adjusting for age and relevant comorbidities. The sensitivity analyses yield similar results. Conclusions: A history of HPV infection is a potential risk factor associated with the development of subsequent EP in Taiwanese individuals, especially those diagnosed with an HPV infection within 3 years. |
