Diagnostic value of combined detection of p16 and human papillomavirus typing in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia / 肿瘤研究与临床

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the application value of combined detection of p16 and human papillomavirus (HPV) typing in the diagnosis of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN).Methods:A total of 8 346 patients aged between 25 years old and 65 years old at Baoji Central Hospital of Shaanxi Province from February 2019 to February 2020 were selected. There were 2 882 patients with cervical lesions diagnosed by colposcopy biopsy. Patients were divided into the different groups based on the age range, and then the condition of HPV infection in all age groups was analyzed. Taking biopsy as the gold standard and according to the pathological results, the detection rate of p16 and HPV typing and the diagnostic value of the single and combined detection in CIN were also analyzed.Results:The age group with the highest positive rate of p16 and HPV was 31-40 years old [47.42% (1 014/2 427) and 36.84% (894/2 427), respectively], followed by 41-50 years old group [30.15% (907/2 942) and 28.11% (827/2 942)], and there were statistically significant differences in positive rate of p16 and HPV in all age groups (all P < 0.05). Among 2 882 patient with cervical lesions diagnosed by pathological examination, there were 2 572 cases (89.24%) of p16 positive, and 2 169 cases (75.26%) of HPV positive. With the disease progression of cervical lesions, the positive rate of p16 and HPV was gradually increased, and the positive rate of p16 of inflammation, CINⅠ, CINⅡ, CIN Ⅲ, cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) was 11.68% (23/197), 94. 85% (1 105/1 165), 93.57% (771/824), 96.76% (538/556), 96.43% (135/140), respectively; the positive rate of HPV was 17.77% (35/197), 77.60% (904/1 165), 80.22% (661/824), 80.40% (447/556), 87.14% (122/140), respectively, and HPV infection was mostly HPV16/18 infection type with the disease progression of cervical lesions. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value in detecting CIN of HPV was 75.26%, 81.13%, 67.78% and 86.14%, respectively; the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value in detecting CIN of p16 was 89.24%, 84.74%, 75.51% and 93.72%, respectively; the diagnostic efficacy of p16 was higher than that of HPV in detecting CIN, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of HPV combined with p16 in detecting CIN was 94.10%, 91.33%, 85.12%, 96.71%, which were higher compared with those of single detection (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:HPV infection mainly occurs in women aged 31-40 years old followed by 41-50 years old, and the infected population of CIN tends to be younger. p16 is superior to HPV in detecting the diagnostic efficacy of CIN; combined detection of p16 and HPV can increase the sensitivity and specificity, reduce the rate of misdiagnosis, and can play a key clinical value in early diagnosis and treatment of CIN.
