RESUMO
Objective To investigate the exfoliative cell HPV infection situation,genotype distibution and charactristics among female population in Kashgar area.Methods The cervical exfoliated cells specimens were collected from 1548 women,and 23 genotypes of HPV were detected by using the PCR reverse dot blot hybridization method.The HPV infection situation and its genotypes were analyzed.Results The HPV infection positive rate was 33.33% (485/1 548),in which the HPV-16 infection rate was 10.3%;HPV52 infection rate was 9.9%;HPV58 infection rate was 7.6%,HPV53 infection rate was 7.2%;the single subtype infection rate was was 66.8%,the multiple infection rate was 33.2%;the HPV infection rate was highest(43.3%) in female population aged 41-50 years old,which was extremely higher than that in other age groups(P<0.05).Conclusion The HPV infection among female population of Kashgar area is dominated by HPV16,the HPV infection rate is highest in female population aged aged 41-50 years old,which provides a theoretical basis for the HPV prevention and control work of related departments in Kashgar area.
