Prevalence and risk factors of human papillomavirus infectious in HIV-positive women / 中华临床感染病杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the prevalence and risk factors of human papillomaviruses (HPV)infection among human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)-positive women.Methods Totally 178HIV-positive and 122 HIV-negative women were enrolled.Structured interviews,peripheral CD4 + T cells counts and cervical specimens were obtained.Polymerase chain reaction(PCR)assay was used to identify HPV types. SPSS 16.0 was used for statistical analysis,and logistic regression was used to identify independent prognostic factors for high-risk HPV infection. Results HPV positive rate,high-risk and multiple HPV infection rates were 38.2% vs.12.3% ,35.4% vs.8.2% ,and 13.5% vs.3.3% in HIVpositive women and HIV-negative women,respectively,and the differences were of statistical significance (x2 =24.77,29.08 and 8.91,P ＜0.05).The common types of high-risk HPV were similar between HIV-positive and HIV-negative women(HPV16,52,58 and 18).CD4 + T count ＜ 350/pL,HIV-positive in husband,and HIV infection through sexual contact were risk factors for high-risk HPV infection in HIV-positive women.Conclusion sThe prevalence of HPV infection in HIV-infected women is high,especially for high-risk HPV infection and multiple infection.High-risk HPV infection usually occurs in HIV-positive women with low immune status,HIV infection through sexual contact and HIV-positive husband.
