RESUMEN
@#Objective To investigate the characteristics of distribution of adverse event(AE)associated with human papillomavirus(HPV)vaccine by analysis of data on AE collected from the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System(VAERS).Methods The data on AE reported in VAERS from January 1st,2006 to December 31st,2021 were analyzed and compared by using Pearson Chi-square test and Mann-Whitney U test.Results A total of 53 571 cases of AE were included in the study,in which the ratio of male to female was 0. 25∶1,and the median age of vaccinees was 15 years. A portion of 36. 1%of AE occurred after the first dose,while 90. 7% occurred within 3 d after vaccination. Both the gender ratios(χ~2=72. 570,P < 0. 001) and the median ages(Z = 4. 255,P < 0. 001)of vaccinees in non-serious and serious adverse event(SAE)showed significant difference. In terms of classification of SAE,hospitalization,prolonged hospitalization and disability were more common in females than in males,of which the percentages decreased with the increasing age. Among the AE,syncope was the most common clinical symptom. In the SAE,the highest proportion of deaths was caused by HPV2 vaccine,which was 19. 0%. The proportion of prolonged hospitalization caused by HPV4 vaccine was higher than that by HPV9vaccine. In general,HPV4 vaccine was more prone to cause SAE than HPV9 vaccine(χ~2=183. 267,P < 0. 001).Conclusion In all the AE,the largest proportion occurred in the age group of 9 ～ 17 years,followed by those in the groups of 18 ～ 26 and 27 ～ 45 years. Most of the AE occurred after the first dose. The clinical symptoms of AE caused by three vaccines were different. The analysis of distribution characteristics of AE may provide a reference for the study on clinical safety of HPV vaccine and optimization of vaccination.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To validate the efficacy of Seeplex HPV4A ACE for the detection of high-risk (HR) human papillomavirus (HPV) and HPV 16 and/or HPV 18 genotypes as compared to the PCR method and the Cervista HPV assays in cervical swab samples. METHODS: Besides liquid-based cytology, additional 97 cervical swab samples were collected for HPV genotyping by HPV4A ACE, Cervista HPV assays, and PCR method. To check the statistical differences, we also conducted the paired proportion test, Cohen's kappa statistic, and a receiver operating characteristic curve. RESULTS: Seeplex HPV4A ACE and the Cervista HPV HR showed substantial agreement with PCR for detection of HR HPVs (88.3%, kappa=0.767 and 81.7%, kappa=0.636, respectively). Seeplex HPV4A ACE also showed substantial agreement with the Cervista HPV 16/18 test (89.5%, kappa=0.628). Additionally, the sensitivity and specificity of Seeplex HPV4A ACE and Cervista HPV HR were 91.4% vs. 84.5% and 73.4%, vs. 72.7%, respectively, when those higher than low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions were regarded as abnormalities. HPV genotyping for HPV 16/18 detected cervical intraepithelial neoplasias (CINs) better than HR HPV tests (66.7% vs. 24.6% by HPV4A ACE, 52.6% vs. 25.9% by Cervista HPV assays in CIN II or more, relatively). CONCLUSION: Seeplex HPV4A ACE is an effective method as the PCR and the Cervista HPV assays for the detection of HR HPVs and for genotyping of HPV 16 and 18.
