Abstract
In the present study, the diagnostic value of high risk-human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) combined with colposcopy for the detection of cervical cancer and precancerous lesions was evaluated. A total of 397 patients with confirmed cervical disease were enrolled between August 2020 and December 2021. According to the pathological diagnosis, the patients were divided into cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade I (CIN I; n=153 cases), CIN II (n=101 cases), CIN III (n=86 cases) and cervical cancer (n=57 cases) groups. The HR-HPV-positive rate of the patients with different lesion types was compared, and the consistency of colposcopy and pathological examination results were assessed. For cervical cancer and precancerous lesions, the diagnostic value and efficacy of HR-HPV testing, colposcopy and combined HR-HPV testing and colposcopy examination were compared using pathological examination results as the gold standard. The results of the present study demonstrated that in patients with cervical cancer, the positive rate of HR-HPV (100.00%; n=57/57) was higher than that in patients with precancerous lesions, and the positive rate of HR-HPV in patients with CIN I type (36.60%, n=56/153) was lower than that in patients with CIN II (83.17%, n=84/101) and CIN III (82.56%, n=71/86) types (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the HR-HPV-positive rate between patients with CIN II and CIN III (P>0.05). Cohen's κ coefficient for colposcopy examination and pathological examination of patients with cervical cancer and precancerous lesions was 0.622, the diagnostic accuracy was 90.43% (n=359/397), the positive predictive value was 65.57% (n=40/61), and the negative predictive value was 94.94% (n=319/336). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis demonstrated that the area under the curve of the combined examination in the diagnosis of cervical cancer and precancerous lesions was 0.904, which was higher than that of colposcopy (0.820) or HR-HPV testing (0.802) alone (P<0.05). The results of the present study indicated that HR-HPV detection combined with colposcopy has diagnostic value for cervical cancer and precancerous lesions.

Abstract
As human papillomavirus (HPV) immunisation and HPV-based cervical cancer (CC) screening programmes expand across sub-Saharan Africa, we investigated the potential impact of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) status on high-risk (HR)-HPV distribution among women with CC in Côte d'Ivoire. From July 2018 to June 2020, paraffin-embedded CC specimens diagnosed in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire were systematically collected and tested for HR-HPV DNA. Type-specific HR-HPV prevalence was compared according to HIV status. Of the 170 CC specimens analysed (median age 52 years, interquartile range: [43.0-60.0]), 43 (25.3%) were from women living with HIV (WLHIV) with a median CD4 count of 526 [373-833] cells/mm3 and 86% were on antiretroviral therapy (ART). The overall HR-HPV prevalence was 89.4% [95% CI: 84.7-94.1]. All were single HR-HPV infections with no differences according to HIV status (P = .8). Among HR-HPV-positive CC specimens, the most prevalent HR-HPV types were HPV16 (57.2%), HPV18 (19.7%), HPV45 (8.6%) and HPV35 (4.6%), with no significant differences according to HIV status. Altogether, infection with HPV16/18 accounted for 71.1% [95% CI: 55.9-86.2] of CC cases in WLHIV vs 78.9% [95% CI: 71.3-86.5] in women without HIV (P = .3). The study confirms the major role of HPV16/18 in CC in Côte d'Ivoire and should support a regional scale-up of HPV16/18 vaccination programmes regardless of HIV status. However, vaccines targeting additional HR-HPV types, including HPV45 and HPV35, could further decrease future CC incidence in Côte d'Ivoire, both for WLHIV and women without HIV.

Abstract
Cervical cancer, primarily caused by high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) types 16 and 18, is a major global health concern. Persistent HR-HPV infection can progress from reversible precancerous lesions to invasive cervical cancer, which is driven by the oncogenic activity of human papillomavirus (HPV) genes, particularly E6 and E7. Traditional screening methods, including cytology and HPV testing, have limited sensitivity and specificity. This review explores the application of p16/Ki-67 dual-staining cytology for cervical cancer screening. This advanced immunocytochemical method allows for simultaneously detecting p16 and Ki-67 proteins within cervical epithelial cells, offering a more specific approach for triaging HPV-positive women. Dual staining and traditional methods are compared, demonstrating their high sensitivity and negative predictive value but low specificity. The increased sensitivity of dual staining results in higher detection rates of CIN2+ lesions, which is crucial for preventing cervical cancer progression. However, its low specificity may lead to increased false-positive results and unnecessary biopsies. The implications of integrating dual staining into contemporary screening strategies, particularly considering the evolving landscape of HPV vaccination and changes in HPV genotype prevalence, are also discussed. New guidelines and further research are necessary to elucidate the long-term effects of integrating dual staining into screening protocols.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Serum concentration of folate was inversely associated with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical cancer in some studies. The association between folate and human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, a necessary cause of cervical cancer, has not been well elucidated. OBJECTIVES We evaluated whether serum folate concentrations were associated with high-risk HPV (hrHPV) infection. METHODS The study population was 11,801 females, aged 18-59 y, enrolled in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), from 2003 to 2016, in the United States. In this cross-sectional study, prevalence ratios (PRs) of vaginal hrHPV were calculated using logistic regression models, by quintiles of serum folate. RESULTS Females in the lowest quintile had <21.3 nmol/L of folate. Approximately 23% of the females (2733/11,801) were hrHPV positive. In age-adjusted models, folate was significantly associated with hrHPV infection. The PRs and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were (PR: 1.52; 95% CI: 1.37, 1.70) for the first, (PR: 1.29; 95% CI: 1.15, 1.44) for the second, (PR: 1.19; 95% CI: 1.06, 1.34) for the third, and (PR: 1.09; 95% CI: 0.96, 1.23) for the fourth quintiles, compared with the females in the highest quintile, with a significant P value for trend, <0.0001. The association remained statistically significant after the models were further adjusted for lifestyle and sexual risk factors for hrHPV infection; the females in the lowest quintile were more likely to have hrHPV infection than those in the highest quintile (PR: 1.40; 95% CI: 1.11, 1.53). CONCLUSIONS Results from this sample of females in the United States suggest that serum folate concentration is inversely associated with hrHPV infection.

Abstract
High-risk (HR)-human papillomavirus (HPV) is the leading cause of precancerous cervical lesions in patients with chronic untreated infection. We investigated the relationships among several vaginal microbiological alterations, oncogene E6/E7 expression, and HR-HPV. A total of 1327 women who underwent HPV screening, vaginal microecology determination, and fluid-based thin-layer cytological test were enrolled and classified into the HPV-negative group, the low-risk (LR)-HPV-positive group, and the HR-HPV-positive group. The status of cervical HPV infection, vaginal microecology, and E6/E7 mRNA expression were examined sequentially. The effect of HR-HPV infection on cervical cancer (CC) was meticulously assessed, and associations between HR-HPV infection and vaginal microecology and E6/E7 mRNA were identified. In total 548/1327 patients were HPV positive, including LR-HPV infection (N = 132) and HR-HPV infection (N = 416). Patients in the HR-HPV positive group revealed higher detection rates of bacterial vaginosis (BV), trichomonal vaginitis (TV), and vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) relative to the HPV negative group. A higher E6/E7 mRNA expression was identified in HR-HPV patients compared to LR-HPV patients. BV and E6/E7 mRNA were classified as independent risk factors for HR-HPV infection. Patients with HR-HPV infection were more susceptible to CC development. Overall, BV and E6/E7 mRNA expression were identified as independent risk factors for HR-HPV infection.IMPACT STATEMENTWhat is already known on this subject? Through literature review, we found that vaginal ecological changes increase the risk of HPV infection, and HPV persistent infection is an important risk factor for cervical precancerous lesions and cervical cancer. In addition, HPV gene E6/E7 is expressed in HPV-positive cervical cancer cells, which is related to cell malignant transformation and even tumorigenesis.What do the results of this study add? This study further revealed that bacterial vaginosis (BV) and E6/E7 mRNA were independently correlated with HR-HPV infection, and HR-HPV infection increased the risk of cervical cancer.What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research? E6/E7 mRNA detection may be used as a new auxiliary diagnostic index for HR-HPV infection. In addition, this study provides a reference for whether the restoration of vaginal microecological balance in patients with BV undergoing clinical treatment is conducive to HR-HPV regression, and provides theoretical support for the prevention and control of cervical cancer microecological approach and the occurrence and development of cervical cancer.

Abstract
Background High-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) is the primary cause of cervical cancer, leading to over 311 000 global deaths, mainly in low- and middle-income countries. Kenyan women living with HIV (WLHIV) face a disproportionate burden of HR-HPV. Objectives We determined the prevalence of HR-HPV infections and their association with cervical cytology findings among Kenyan WLHIV. Method We conducted a cross-sectional study among WLHIV attending the HIV care and treatment clinic at the Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH), Kenya's national referral hospital. Study nurses collected a cervical sample with a cytobrush for HR-HPV genotyping using Gene Xpert® assays and HPV Genotypes 14 Real-TM Quant V67-100FRT. Bivariate analysis explored the associations. Results We enrolled 647 WLHIV (mean age of 42.8 years), with 97.2% on antiretroviral therapy (ART) and 79% with a suppressed viral load (< 50 copies/mL plasma). The prevalence of any and vaccine-preventable HR-HPV was 34.6% and 29.4%, respectively, with HPV 52 being the most common genotype (13.4%). Among WLHIV with HR-HPV infections, 21.4% had abnormal cervical cytology. Women with multiple HR-HPV infections were more likely to have abnormal cytology compared to those with single HR-HPV infections (34.9 vs 9.3%, adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 6.2, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.7-14.1, P = 0.001). Women with HR-HPV infection (single or multiple) were more likely to be on the second-line ART regimen compared to those without HR-HPV infections (53.1% vs 46.7%, aOR = 2.3, 95% CI: 1.3-4.1, P = 0.005). Conclusion Among WLHIV at KNH, abnormal cytology was common and more frequent among women with multiple HR-HPV infections.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the triaging efficacy of the human papillomavirus (HPV) 16/18 E7 oncoprotein assay for high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2+) screening in HPV 16/18-positive patients in a tertiary hospital in China. Methods: We collected 476 cervical cell samples from women who tested positive for HPV 16/18 in the gynecological clinic of Peking Union Medical College Hospital between September 2018 and September 2022 and analyzed them by the HPV 16/18 E7 oncoprotein assay before colposcopy and biopsy. The study assessed the triaging efficacy of the HPV 16/18 E7 oncoprotein assay in HPV 16/18-positive patients by analyzing its performance against the gold standard of histologically confirmed CIN2+. Results: The positive rate of the HPV 16/18 E7 oncoprotein assay was 41.0% (114/278) in the negative for intraepithelial lesions and malignancy/CIN1 group and 80.3% (159/198) in the CIN2+ group. For triage of women with a positive HPV 16/18 test for CIN2+ detection, the HPV 16/18 E7 oncoprotein assay had a sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of 80.3%, 59.4%, 58.5%, and 80.9%, respectively. Furthermore, longitudinal follow-up of five patients showed a good correlation between the expression of the HPV 16/18 E7 oncoprotein and cervical lesion grades. Conclusions: As a triage method for HPV 16/18-positive patients, the HPV 16/18 E7 oncoprotein assay improves the specificity, reduces the colposcopy referral rate, and has the potential for long-term monitoring of high-grade CIN.

Abstract
Aim: To evaluate the clinical performance of PAX1 methylation (PAX1m) and cytology for patients with non-HPV16/18 high-risk HPV (hrHPV) infection. Methods: Cervical exfoliated cells from 387 outpatients with non-HPV16/18 hrHPV - positive were collected for cytology and PAX1m assays. Results: The PAX1m level increased with the severity of cytology and histopathology. For cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN)CIN2+/CIN3+, the areas under the curve were both 0.87. The specificity and positive predictive value (PPV) of PAX1m were greater than abnormal cytology (CIN2+ specificity: 75.5 vs 24.8%; PPV: 38.8 vs 18.7%; CIN3+ specificity: 69.3 vs 22.7%; PPV: 14.0 vs 6.7%). Conclusion: PAX1m increased specificity and PPV for CIN2+/CIN3+ compared with cytology for women with non-HPV16/18 hrHPV (+).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the changes of cervical soluble immune markers after focused ultrasound (FU) treatment to explore the underlying local immune effects of FU in the treatment of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection-related low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL). METHODS A total of 35 patients diagnosed with HR-HPV infection-related histological LSIL who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled in this prospective study and treated with FU. The authors used cytometric bead array to measure T-helper type 1 (Th1) cytokine (interleukin [IL] 2, tumor necrosis factor, and interferon γ) and Th2 cytokine (IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, and IL-10) levels in the cervicovaginal lavage of patients before and 3 months after FU treatment. RESULTS After FU treatment, the concentrations of Th2 cytokines IL-5 and IL-6 were significantly lower than those before FU treatment (P = 0.044 and P = 0.028, respectively). HR-HPV infection was cleared in 27 patients, with a clearance rate of 77.1% (27 of 35). The concentration of IL-4 in patients with HR-HPV clearance after FU treatment was significantly lower than that in patients without HR-HPV clearance (P = 0.045). CONCLUSION FU can inhibit the production of certain Th2 cytokines and may improve the local immune status of the cervix, thereby eliminating HR-HPV infection.

Abstract
Cervical cancer is an important topic in the study of global health issues, ranking fourth among women's cancer cases in the world. It is one of the nine major cancers that China is focusing on preventing and treating, and it is the only cancer that can be prevented through vaccination. Systematic and effective screening for human papilloma (HPV) infection, which is closely linked to the development of cervical cancer, can reduce cervical cancer incidence and mortality. In this paper, an electrochemical sensor was designed to detect HPV 16 using dual-signal amplification. An APTES-modified glassy carbon electrode was used for improved stability. Gold nanoparticles and a chain amplification reaction were combined for signal amplification. The limit of detection (LOD) of this electrochemical sensor was 1.731 × 10-16 mol/L, and the linear response of the target detector range was from 1.0 × 10-13 mol/L to 1.0 × 10-5 mol/L (R2 = 0.99232). The test of serum sample recovery showed that it has good anti-interference, and the performance of all aspects was improved to different degrees compared with the previous research from the team. The designed sensor is centered around the principles of low cost, high sensitivity and stability, which provides new ideas for the future development of cervical cancer prevention and electrochemical biosensors.

Abstract
Background Heat-clearing and dampness-eliminating Chinese medicine (HDCM) has been studied in clinical trials for cervical HPV infection for decades. However, there has been little comprehensive assessment of the strength and quality of the evidence. Therefore, this study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the effectiveness and safety of HDCM in high-risk cervical HPV-infected patients. Methods The research focus questions were constructed in accordance with the criteria of participants, intervention, comparison, and outcomes (PICO), and a protocol was registered in PROSPERO. Comprehensive and systematic searches and inquiries in eight electronic databases were conducted from their inception to 30th June 2022. Further, a systematic review and meta-analysis of all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were conducted to evaluate the HDCM therapy methods. Results A total of 12 studies were eligible for inclusion, including 1,574 patients. Data synthesis showed that the HPV clearance rate of HDCM groups was superior to both interferon and follow-up groups (RR = 1.40,95% CI:1.15, 1.71, P < 0.01) and (RR = 3.15, 95% CI:2.43,4.08, P < 0.01), respectively. HDCM was proven to exhibit greater potential in reducing HPV-DNA virus load (MD = -5.16, 95% CI: -5.91, -4.41, P < 0.01). The reversal rate of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) for HDCM groups was approximately 2.8 times (RR = 2.80, 95% CI: 2.19, 3.57, P < 0.01), as high as the follow-up groups. Additionally, the recurrence rate of HR-HPV at the end of follow-up in this meta-analysis was reported to be lower in HDCM groups compared to follow-up groups [6.81% (16/235) and 14.65% (29/198), respectively]. The most commonly used Chinese herbal remedies were as follows: Huangbai (Phellodendron chinense var.Glabriusculum C.K. Schneid.), Kushen (Sophora flavescens Aiton), Daqingye (Isatis indigotica Fortune), Zicao (Arnebia hi-spidissima DC.), Baihuasheshecao (Hedyotis diffusa Spreng.), Banlangen (Isatis tinctoria subsp.tinctoria L.), Huzhang (Reynoutria japonica Houtt.), and Huangqi (Orobanche astragali Mouterde). Conclusion HDCM interventions appeared to generate significant effects on enhancing the rate of HR-HPV clearance, reducing the HPV-DNA virus load, and increasing the CIN regression rate. Some active components were confirmed to be responsible for this efficacy, which deserves further exploration.

Abstract
Background In a previous training set with a case-controlled design, cutoff values for host EPB41L3 and JAM3 gene methylation were obtained for the detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 2 or more severe lesions (CIN2+). This validation trial was conducted to evaluate the role of DNA methylation in screening for CIN2+ by cervical cytology among unselected participants. Methods From June 1, 2019, to September 1, 2019, in our study center, we collected liquid-based samples from cervical swabs for methylation assays and hrHPV testing in eligible patients. The primary endpoint was the diagnostic accuracy of DNA methylation and hrHPV genotyping for CIN2+ according to confirmed histology results. Results Among 307 participants, compared with hrHPV testing, the methylation assay for CIN2+ had lower sensitivity (68.7% versus 86.1%, p=0.002) but higher specificity (96.7% versus 0.696, p<0.001). The methylation assay also had favorable sensitivity and specificity in patients with negative hrHPV testing (56.3% and 96.9%) and in patients with cervical adenocarcinoma (73.7% and 92.7%). DNA methylation had higher specificity than the hrHPV assay (100.0% versus 44.4%, p<0.001) for identifying residual CIN2+ in patients without residual lesions. Positive cervical DNA methylation was associated with a diagnostic probability of endometrial carcinoma (odds ratio 15.5 [95% confidence interval 4.1-58.6]) but not of ovarian epithelial carcinoma (1.4 [0.3-6.5]). Conclusions The host EPB41L3 and JAM3 gene methylation assay in cervical cytology had favorable diagnostic accuracy for CIN2+ and was highly specific for residual CIN2+ lesions The methylation assay is a promising triage tool in hrHPV+ women, or even an independent tool for cervical cancer screening. The methylation status in cervical cytology could also serve as a prognostic biomarker. Its role in detecting endometrial carcinomas is worthy of further exploration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fine-needle aspiration is used as a diagnostic tool in head and neck oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma and its metastases. Prognosis and treatment rely on the presence or absence of the human papilloma virus. The purpose of this study was to validate the performance of the Aptima HPV assay using Hema-Diff stained fine-needle aspiration smears in the diagnosis of human papilloma virus-related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma using a simplified method to obtain tumor cells for testing. METHODS Patients with a diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma and positive p16 immunohistochemical staining were identified. Aptima Specimen Transport Media was used to remove tumor cells from the Hema-Diff stained slides using a moistened swab. The selected cells were tested for high risk-human papilloma virus using the Aptima HPV assay and Aptima HPV 16 18/45 genotype assay. The results were compared with the p16 immunohistochemical staining of the related cell block and surgical specimens. RESULTS Twenty-one of the 21 (100%) p16-positive cases were found to be positive for high risk-human papilloma virus, whereas 20 of 21 (95%) negative cases were found to be negative for high risk-human papilloma virus using the Aptima HPV assay. CONCLUSION The Aptima HPV assay can be used to detect high-risk human papilloma virus in Hema-Diff stained fine-needle aspiration smears of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma with a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 95%. This provides a valuable alternative to p16 immunohistochemical staining of cell block sections that often lack appropriate numbers of tumor cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There has been conflicting evidence on the independent prognostic role of human papillomavirus (HPV) status in sinonasal cancer. The objective of this study was to assess whether the survival of patients with sinonasal cancer differs based on various HPV statuses, including HPV-negative, positive for the high-risk HPV-16 and HPV-18 (HPV16/18) subtypes, and positive for other high-risk and low-risk HPV subtypes. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, data from the National Cancer Database were extracted from the years 2010-2017 for patients who had primary sinonasal cancer (N = 12,009). The outcome of interest was overall survival based on HPV tumor status. RESULTS Study included an analytic cohort of 1070 patients with sinonasal cancer who had confirmed HPV tumor status (732 [68.4%] HPV-negative; 280 [26.2%] HPV16/18-positive; 40 [3.7%] positive for other high-risk HPV; and 18 [1.7%] positive for low-risk HPV). HPV-negative patients had the lowest all-cause survival probability at 5 years postdiagnosis (0.50). After controlling for covariates, HPV16/18-positive patients had a 37% lower mortality hazard than HPV-negative patients (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.63; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.48-0.82). Patients aged 64-72 years (crude prevalence ratio, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.51-0.86) and 73 years and older (crude prevalence ratio, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.31-0.59) presented with lower rates of HPV16/18-positive sinonasal cancer than those aged 40-54 years. In addition, Hispanic patients had a 2.36 times higher prevalence of non-HPV16/18 sinonasal cancer than non-Hispanic White patients. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that, for patients with sinonasal cancer, HPV16/18-positive disease may confer a significant survival advantage compared with HPV-negative disease. Other high-risk and low-risk HPV subtypes have survival rates similar to the rates for HPV-negative disease. HPV status might be an important independent prognostic factor in sinonasal cancer that could be used in patient selection and clinical decisions.

Abstract
Introduction Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide. The prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) in HNSCC varies across regions. Objective This study aimed to determine the prevalence of high-risk HPV (hrHPV) among patients with HNSCC in the Middle East region. Methods Samples from patients with oropharyngeal or laryngeal lesions who underwent biopsy or resection at a tertiary care hospital from 2010 to 2015 were collected. Those confirmed as squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) on histopathology were identified as cases (n = 61), whereas benign lesions were used as controls (n = 83). Immunohistochemistry (IHC) for p16, p53, Ki-67, and in situ hybridization (ISH) for hrHPV genotypes 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, and 66 were performed on all cases. Results A total of 154 cases were studied: 61 squamous cell cancers (cases), 83 benign lesions (control), and 10 dysplasia specimens. Among the cases, only five (8.6%) were positive for hrHPV, whereas only one control specimen tested positive. The SCC group had higher mean age, male sex, and history of cigarette smoking and alcohol usage. Among the hrHPV-positive SCC cases, 80% had a tumor in the oropharyngeal region. All hrHPV-positive cases were positive for p16 and p53 immunostains. Conclusion Among HNSCC cases, hrHPV was detected at a lower rate compared to other regions of the world. This study suggests that hrHPV plays a minor role in the pathogenesis of HNSCC in this region, compared to tobacco use and alcohol consumption.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and adverse effects of focused ultrasound (FU) in the treatment of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) and follow up on pregnancy outcomes in patients. METHODS This retrospective study recruited 57 patients aged 20-40 years with cervical HSIL combined with HR-HPV infection who received FU treatment between September 2019 and April 2022. Clinical data of the patients were obtained from hospital records. HSIL cure rate and cumulative HR-HPV clearance rate were assessed after treatment. Patients were followed up on fertility and pregnancy outcomes after treatment by telephone interviews until April 1, 2023. RESULTS During a 6-month follow-up, the HSIL cure rate was 73.7%, and a statistical difference between CIN2 and CIN3 (75.6% vs. 66.7%, p = 0.713) was not present. HSIL -recurrence was not observed during the follow-up period, and the median follow-up duration was 12 months. The cumulative HR-HPV clearance rates at the 6- and 12-month follow-ups were 56.1% and 75.4%, respectively. The median clearance time of HR-HPV was 6 (95% confidence interval, 5.46-6.54) months. The clearance rate was higher in HPV16/18 than in non-HPV16/18 (86.7% vs. 62.9%, p = 0.038). After treatment, the successful pregnancy rate in patients with fertility intentions and spontaneous abortion rate were 73.9% and 5.9%, respectively. Preterm birth, preterm premature rupture of membranes, or low-birth-weight infants were not observed. CONCLUSION FU treatment can regress HSIL and accelerate HR-HPV clearance in young women of childbearing age with cervical HSIL associated with HR-HPV infection, and has no significant adverse effects on pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract
Although vaginal microbiota (VM) may interact with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and clearance, longitudinal data remain very limited. We aimed to investigate the association between VM at baseline and the clearance of high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) infection within 12 months. Cervical swabs were collected at diagnosis from 85 patients with HR-HPV infection and histologically confirmed cervical lesions, including cervicitis, low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion. Microbiome analysis was performed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Among the 73 women included in the analyses, HPV clearance was observed in 58.9% of the patients within 12 months. No significant difference was observed between the HPV-cleared and HPV-uncleared groups regarding age, disease stage, HPV subtype, VM community state types, and VM diversity (α and β). Women with the depletion of enterococcus ASV_62 and enrichment in Lactobacillus iners at baseline were less likely to have HPV clearance at month 12. Further analysis revealed a significant negative association between high abundance of L. iners and HPV clearance in patients who received non-operative treatment (OR = 3.94, p = 0.041), but not in those who received operative treatment (OR = 1.86, p = 0.660). Our findings provide new evidence for the potential role of VM in the persistent HR-HPV infections.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To assess the efficacy and safety of focused ultrasound (FU) for high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection-related cervical low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL). METHODS Of 185 patients who met the inclusion criteria for this prospective study from October 2020 to November 2021, 95 received FU and 90 were followed up only. At the six-month follow-up, the HR-HPV clearance and LSIL regression rates of the groups were compared and factors affecting HR-HPV clearance were analyzed. The safety and side effects of FU were evaluated. RESULTS No significant difference was found in the baseline clinical data between the two groups (p > 0.05). At the six-month follow-up, the HR-HPV clearance rates were 75.6% in the FU group and 25.6% in the observation group (p = 0.000). The LSIL regression rates were 89.5% in the FU group and 56.4% in the observation group (p = 0.000). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the HR-HPV clearance rate in the FU group was 9.03 times higher than that in the observation group (95% confidence interval [CI], 3.75-21.73, p = 0.000), and the clearance rate of single-type HR-HPV infections was 5.28 times higher than that of multi-type infections (95% CI, 1.83-15.23, p = 0.002). The mean intraoperative bleeding was 1.8 ± 0.6 (1-3) mL; the mean intraoperative pain score was 2.6 ± 1.0 (1-6). CONCLUSIONS For patients with HR-HPV infection-related histological LSIL, FU can eliminate HR-HPV infection and cause lesions to regress in a short time, with few adverse effects and good tolerance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Persistence of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection is a paramount determinant in cervical cancer (CC) development. Circular RNAs have the potential to be promising biomarkers for various cancers. This study explored circular RNA-mitochondrial tRNA translation optimization 1 (circMTO1) expression in the serum of CC patients and its clinical value in diagnosing CC and predicting HR-HPV infection. MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 125 CC patients (including 78 cases with HR-HPV) were enrolled, with another 76 healthy people as controls. Serum circMTO1 and miR-199a expressions were detected by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and the diagnostic efficacy of circMTO1 for CC and HR-HPV infection was analyzed by the receiver operating characteristic curve. According to the median of serum circMTO1 expression, CC patients were assigned into circMTO1 low/high expression groups to analyze the correlation between circMTO1 and clinical parameters using the Fisher and χ 2 tests. Independent association of circMTO1 with HR-HPV infection in CC was evaluated via logistics multivariate regression analysis. Targeted relationship between miR-199a and circMTO1 was predicted by Starbase Web site and validated via dual-luciferase assay, with their correlation further assessed by Pearson analysis. RESULTS Serum circMTO1 was increased in CC patients and prominently elevated in HR-HPV-positive CC patients, with a level greater than 1.485 assisting CC diagnosis and a level greater than 2.480 assisting HR-HPV-positive diagnosis. The circMTO1 was interrelated to clinical stage, tumor differentiation, lymph node metastasis, invasion depth, and independently linked with HR-HPV infection in CC. Serum miR-199a was downregulated in HR-HPV-positive CC patients and inversely correlated with circMTO1. CONCLUSIONS Serum circMTO1 is upregulated in HR-HPV-positive CC patients and has a diagnostic value for HR-HPV infection in CC.

Abstract
Cervical cancer is the most prevalent gynecologic malignancy, especially in women of low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). With a better understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of cervical cancer, it has been well accepted that this type of cancer can be prevented and treated via early screening. Due to its higher sensitivity than cytology to identify precursor lesions of cervical cancer, detection of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) DNA has been implemented as the primary screening approach. However, a high referral rate for colposcopy after HR-HPV DNA detection due to its low specificity in HR-HPV screening often leads to overtreatment and thus increases the healthcare burden. Emerging evidence has demonstrated that detection of host cell gene and/or HPV DNA methylation represents a promising approach for the early triage of cervical cancer in HR-HPV-positive women owing to its convenience and comparable performance to cytology, particularly in LMICs with limited healthcare resources. While numerous potential markers involving DNA methylation of host cell genes and the HPV genome have been identified thus far, it is crucial to define which genes or panels involving host and/or HPV are feasible and appropriate for large-scale screening and triage. An ideal approach for screening and triage of CIN/ICC requires high sensitivity and adequate specificity and is suitable for self-sampling and inexpensive to allow population-based screening, particularly in LMICs. In this review, we summarize the markers of host cell gene/HR-HPV DNA methylation and discuss their triage performance and feasibility for high-grade precancerous cervical intraepithelial neoplasia or worse (CIN2+ and CIN3+) in HR-HPV-positive women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The value of extended high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) genotyping for cervical cancer screening in women with low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (L-SIL) cytology has been recognized, but few studies have investigated this. METHODS Women with L-SIL Papanicolaou results who underwent human papillomavirus (HPV) genotyping between October 2017 and October 2021 at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University were identified. Their HPV results were correlated with immediate histopathologic follow-up findings. RESULTS In total, 8726 women who had L-SIL cytology and extended HPV genotyping results were analyzed. The overall hrHPV-positive rate was 84% in women with L-SIL, and the most prevalent hrHPV genotypes were type 52 (HPV52) (20.7%), HPV53 (15.7%), and HPV16 (14.3%). Single and multiple coinfections of hrHPV genotypes were detected in 57.2% and 42.8% of women with positive hrHPV results, respectively. Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade ≥2 (CIN2+) was identified in 8.5% of hrHPV-positive women. The CIN2+ detection rate in women who had multiple hrHPV infections (9.9%) was significantly higher than the rate in those who had infection with a single HPV type (7.2%). The top 5 CIN2+-associated HPV infections were HPV16 (25.2%), HPV82 (17.8%), HPV33 (16.3%), HPV31 (14.6%), and HPV26 (13.8%). For the composite group with HPV types HPV16, HPV26, HPV82, HPV31, HPV18, HPV33, HPV58, HPV35, HPV52, and HPV51, the risk of CIN2+ was 11.5% and represented 97.1% of all CIN2+ in biopsied, hrHPV-positive patients. The composite group of 8 remaining HPV genotypes (HPV39, HPV45, HPV53, HPV56, HPV59, HPV66, HPV68, and HPV73) was identified in 29.7% of hrHPV-positive patients, and the risk of CIN2+ for this composite group was similar to the risk of CIN2+ in hrHPV-negative patients. CONCLUSIONS This large retrospective study in a predominantly unvaccinated cohort demonstrated that extended hrHPV genotyping improves genotype-specific risk stratification in women with L-SIL.

Abstract
The shift towards primary human papillomavirus (HPV)-based screening has necessitated the search for a secondary triage test that provides sufficient sensitivity to detect high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cancer, but also brings an improved specificity to avoid unnecessary clinical work and colposcopy referrals. We evaluated the performance of the previously described DNA-methylation test (S5) in detecting CIN3 and cancers from diverse geographic settings in high-, medium- and low-income countries, using the cut-off of 0.80 and exploratory cut-offs of 2.62 and 3.70. Assays were performed using exfoliated cervical specimens (n = 808) and formalin-fixed biopsies (n = 166) from women diagnosed with cytology-negative results (n = 220), CIN3 (n = 204) and cancer stages I (n = 245), II (n = 249), III (n = 28) and IV (n = 22). Methylation increased proportionally with disease severity (Cuzick test for trend, P < .0001). S5 accurately separated women with negative-histology from CIN3 or cancer (P < .0001). At the 0.80 cut-off, 543/544 cancers were correctly identified as S5 positive (99.81%). At cut-off 3.70, S5 showed a sensitivity of 95.77% with improved specificity. The S5 odds ratios of women negative for cervical disease vs CIN3+ were significantly higher than for HPV16/18 genotyping at all cut-offs (all P < .0001). At S5 cut-off 0.80, 96.15% of consistently high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV)-negative cancers (tested with multiple hrHPV-genotyping assay) were positive by S5. These cancers may have been missed in current primary hrHPV-screening programmes. The S5 test can accurately detect CIN3 and malignancy irrespective of geographic context and setting. The test can be used as a screening and triage tool. Adjustment of the S5 cut-off can be performed considering the relative importance given to sensitivity vs specificity.

Abstract
AIMS To compare the clinical performance of high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) DNA detection between urine and cervical samples collected from the same patient for the detection of CIN2+ lesions (high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions or cervical cancer lesions). The secondary objectives were to evaluate agreement among hrHPV genotypes and to compare patient satisfaction between urine and cervical sample collection. METHODS This prospective cross-sectional study enrolled 96 women with abnormal cervical cytology who attended the colposcopy clinic at Siriraj Hospital (Bangkok, Thailand) between July 2016 and January 2017. Self-collected random-voiding and first stream urine samples were collected into a universal sterile urine container and immediately mixing with preservative before the pelvic examination. Cervical tissue sampling was performed according to standard treatment guidelines. Both specimens were sent for extraction and detection of hrHPV by Anyplex II HPV high-risk testing. Study patients were surveyed to compare patient satisfaction between urine and cervical sample collection. RESULTS Carcinogenic hrHPV positive rate was 73% in urine samples and 81% in cervical samples. The sensitivity for HPV in the detection CIN2+ was high in both the urine and cervical groups at 86.2% and 94.8%, respectively. Agreement between the urine and cervical groups for HPV 16 or 18 detection was high, with kappa values of 0.86 for subtypes 16/18. Urine specimen collection had significantly higher satisfaction and acceptability than cervical specimen collection. CONCLUSION Urine hrHPV testing by real-time polymerase chain reaction demonstrated high sensitivity and accuracy for the detection of CIN2+ lesions, with very good agreement when compared with cervical sample testing.

Abstract
Objectives: The main objectives of this study were to investigate the detection rate of high-risk human papillomavirus types 16 and 18 (high-risk HPV16/18) in oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) including oral leukoplakia (OL) and oral lichen planus (OLP) in a Thai population and their associations with demographic, risk habits, and clinicopathologic features. Methods: Paraffin-embedded formalin-fixed specimens from 101 OL and 59 OLP patients with patients’ demographic, risk habits, and clinicopathologic data were collected. Conventional qualitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect high-risk HPV16/18 DNA. Associations between high-risk HPV type 16/18 and demographic, clinicopathologic, risk factors (tobacco and alcohol uses) of OPMDs were analysed by Chi-square or Fisher’s exact test. The results with p value less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results: HPV16/18 DNA was found in both OL and OLP groups with the detection rate of 19.8% and 18.6%, respectively. Approximately 90% of high-risk HPV were HPV18 subtype. Additionally, in OL group, high-risk HPV was found more frequently in patients with moderate/severe dysplasia than that in mild dysplasia. Interestingly, in OLP group, high-risk HPV was only detected in atrophic/ulcerative subtypes. None of risk factors was associated with high-risk HPV. Conclusions: Approximately 19% of OPMDs were HPV16/18-positive. HPV18 DNA was predominantly detected in both OL and OLP patients (90%). Additionally, the detection rate of high-risk HPV was higher in more severe dysplastic cases of OL and more clinically severe cases of OLP.

Abstract
Objectives: Women with normal pathology screened from abnormal cervical cytology are a special population with higher progression risk than women with normal cytology. However, the associations between genotype distribution and changes of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection and cervical progression risk in this special population remain unclear. Methods: A total of 1232 women with normal pathology screened from abnormal cervical cytology were enrolled into this cohort with 2-year follow-up. HPV genotyping detection was performed through flow-through hybridization. Hazard ratios (HRs) and Odds ratios (ORs) were calculated using Cox proportional hazard regression and logistic regression models, respectively. Results: Overall HR-HPV prevalence at baseline was 29.0%, with HPV16, 52, 58, 53 and 51 the top five genotypes. The 2-year persistence rate of HR-HPV infection was 31.9%. Compared with HR-HPV negative, the adjusted HRs of overall HR-HPV, HPV16, 31/33, 58, 51, and 53 infections for the progression risk of normal cervix were 5.31, 7.10, 6.95, 5.74, 5.04, and 4.88, respectively. Multiple HR-HPV infection cannot lead to an additional risk of progression relative to single HR-HPV infection. In comparison with HR-HPV persistently negative, same-type HR-HPV persistence was positively associated with progression risk of normal cervix (adjusted OR: 22.26), but different-type HR-HPV persistence was not linked to cervical progression. Conclusion: Genotypes and persistence of HR-HPV infection could stratify the cervical progression risk in women with normal cervical pathology and abnormal cytology and provide evidence for development of next generation of vaccines. HPV51 and 53 deserved attention apart from HPV16, 31, 33, and 58.

Abstract
The Nocardia rubra cell wall skeleton (Nr-CWS) for external use is an immune enhancer, which has been widely used in human cervix diseases such as cervical erosion, but the mechanism of Nr-CWS enhancing immunity is still unclear. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect and mechanism of Nr-CWS on the local immune status of cervical tissue in patients with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection and cervical precancerous lesion, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). The recruited patients with HR-HPV infection and CIN were treated with Nr-CWS. The specimens were taken from these patients before and after local application of Nr-CWS respectively. The normal control specimens were tested simultaneously. Serial section analysis of immunohistochemistry and co-expression analysis were performed to characterize populations of T cells and the expressions of programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) and programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). The levels of cytokines in local cervical tissue were also detected. Nr-CWS significantly increased T cells including CD4+, CD8+ T cells, and reduced the expression of PD-L1 in the patients’ local cervical tissues. Co-expression analyses showed that the proportions of PD-1+CD4+ cells in CD4+ T cells and PD-1+CD8+ cells in CD8+ T cells decreased after Nr-CWS application. Furthermore, the increase in the number of immune cells was accompanied by increased pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-12 (IL-12), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and decreased suppressive cytokine IL-10. The results indicate that Nr-CWS, as an immunotherapeutic agent for HR-HPV infection and CIN, plays an immune promoting role related to the upregulation of T cell subsets and the inhibition of PD-1/PD-L1 pathway.

Abstract
PURPOSE High-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection is widely known as the major cause of cervical cancer and there are notable differences in HR-HPV prevalence and genotype distribution in different populations. Women with abnormal cervical cytology are at increased risk of cervical cancer; however, the genotype distribution of HR-HPV in women with abnormal cervical cytology remains unclear. METHODS A total of 2,300 women with abnormal cervical cytology (from 39,988 women completing a baseline survey in a cohort established during June 2014 to December 2014) were enrolled in this study. All participants gave informed consent and completed a questionnaire about characteristics related to HPV infection. HPV genotypes were identified using flow-through hybridization, and cytology was assessed by the ThinPrep cytological test. Data were analyzed using SPSS 22.0 for Windows. RESULTS The overall prevalence of HR-HPV in the 2,300 women with abnormal cervical cytology was 32%, with single and multiple HR-HPV infections making up 70.2% and 29.8%, respectively. The top-five HR-HPV genotypes were HPV16 (13.5%), HPV58 (5.7%), HPV52 (4.9%), HPV53 (2.5%), and HPV51 (2.3%). The prevalence of HR-HPV in atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance, low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions, and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions or higher was 30.8%, 36.5%, and 54.9%, respectively, showing an increasing trend with severity of cervical cytology (χ 2 trend=13.952, p<0.001). The prevalence of HPV16 and HPV33 increased significantly with the degree of cytological abnormality. HR-HPV infection risk was statistically higher in women aged 35-45 years, with low education, infrequent bathing, multiple gravidity, multiple parity, history of gynecological diseases, and premenopause. CONCLUSION HR-HPV infection in women with abnormal cervical cytology was 32%, and the top-five HR-HPV genotypes were HPV16, HPV58, HPV52, HPV53, and HPV51 in Shanxi Province, China. These results shed light on demographic and behavioral characteristics related to HR-HPV infection in women with abnormal cervical cytology and provide an insight for the development of HPV vaccines.

Abstract
As p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) localizes to the sites of DNA double-strand
breaks and rapidly forms nuclear foci (NF), and its presence may be an indicator
of endogenous genomic instability (GIN). We previously showed that 53BP1 NF in
cervical cells increase with neoplastic progression, indicating the significance
of 53BP1 expression for the estimation of malignant potential during cervical
carcinogenesis. This study aimed to further elucidate the impact of 53BP1
expression as a biomarker for cervical squamous intraepithelial lesion (SIL). A
total of 81 tissue samples, including 17 of normal cervical epithelium, 22 of
cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 1, 21 of CIN2, and 21 of CIN3, from
patients positive for high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) were used for
double-label immunofluorescence of 53BP1 and Ki-67/p16INK4a
expression and HR-HPV in situ hybridization. We analyzed associations between
53BP1 expression type with parameters such as CIN grade, HR-HPV infection
status, p16INK4a expression, and CIN prognosis. Expression type of
53BP1 was significantly associated with histological grade of CIN and HR-HPV in
situ hybridization signal pattern (P < .0001). There was a
significant correlation between 53BP1 and p16INK4a expression levels
(r = .73, P < .0001). However, there
was no association between 53BP1 expression type and CIN prognosis. We propose
that 53BP1 expression type is a valuable biomarker for SIL, which can help
estimate the grade and GIN of cervical lesions reflecting replication stress
caused by the integration of HR-HPV to the host genome.

Abstract
Background Oral cancer is strongly associated with the habit of tobacco chewing, alcohol, and betel quid consumption in India. However, sometimes, majority of the population develop oral cancer without exposure to these risk factors and are sometimes cautious about their fitness, suggesting that additional causes such as genetic predisposition, diet, and viral agents may be associated which need to explored. Aims and Objectives The aim of this study was to establish a possible correlation between clinical types of leukoplakia with their histopathological features of high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and the presence or absence of HPV and expression of p53through immunohistochemistry (IHC). Materials and Methods Sample comprised of 40 cases of leukoplakia and 10 cases as control group. Three sections were prepared from each biopsy and subjected to IHC and hematoxylin and eosin (H and E) stain, respectively. IHC-stained slides were used to evaluate the expression of p53 and HPV and then correlated with the features of HPV infection using H and E staining. Chi-square test with a statistical analysis software package (SPSS software Version 20.0) was used. Observation and Results The P value for p53 against HPV (IHC) was 0.012, which indicates a significant difference between positivity proportion of P53 and HPV (IHC), whereas the P value for koilocyte and HPV (IHC) is 0.311, which is nonsignificant and indicates no significance of difference between proportion of positivity between koilocyte and HPV (IHC). Conclusion The expression of p53 was proportionally significant to the expression of positivity of HPV, but there was no significant association between koilocyte and p53 expression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite Aptima assay as the latest US Food Drug Administration (FDA)-approved high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) test has been implemented as an adjunct in cervical cancer screening for years, histological follow-up data remain limited with respect to its performance in women with ASC-US Pap tests and positive hrHPV results. METHODS Cases with results of ASC-US cytology and positive hrHPV by Aptima assay during the period 06/ 2015-02/2017 were retrieved from archived pathology reports. Immediate histological follow-up results were analyzed within 6 months interval after cotesting. RESULTS Among 4196 women with ASC-US Pap tests and positive hrHPV, 51.1% of them had the immediate histological follow-up within 6 months. With positive Aptima hrHPV as the adjunct, 46.5% (95%CI 46.2-46.8) of ASC-US women were found to have cervical intraepithelial neoplasia type 1 (CIN1); 8.8% (95%CI 8.1-9.5) women were detected CIN2+ lesion including eight adenocarcinoma in-situ (AIS)s. CIN2+ detection rates were highest in women under 25 (15.4%, n = 65), when comparison with different age cutoffs, younger age women had higher CIN2+ lesion detection rate than that in older group (P <.01). CONCLUSION This is by far one of the largest retrospective studies to analyze the histological follow-up results of ASC-US women with positive hrHPV tested by Aptima hrHPV mRNA assay. The results indicated that younger women with ASC-US and positive hrHPV testing have highest risk of developing high grade CIN lesions as compared to the older women. Lastly, with positive HPV as the adjunct, 55.3% (1186/2145) of ASC-US women will result in the positive finding on histological follow-up.

Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study was to analyze the prognostic value of integrin subunit β1 and laminin γ1 chain in patients with cervical cancer (CC). Materials & methods: The study included 96 samples. Cytological diagnosis, human papillomavirus (HPV) genotyping, HPV integration status and integrin subunit β1 and laminin γ1 chain expressions were performed or determined using Papanicolaou smear, INNO-LiPA® Genotyping Extra Kit, in situ hybridization, and immunocytochemistry, respectively. The association between variables was calculated using chi-squared and Fisher's exact test; logistic regression analysis was performed to calculate odds ratios and CI at 95%. Results: Our results show that integrin subunit β1 and laminin γ1 chain expressions increase according to tumor progression. Integrin subunit β1 and laminin γ1 chain expressions are associated with cytological diagnosis (p < 0.001 and p = 0.001, respectively) and laminin γ1 chain expression with the integration status of HPV (p < 0.001). Moderate/high expressions of integrin subunit β1 and laminin γ1 chain were correlated with overall survival and increased risk of CC (6.86 and 3.75, respectively), the odds ratio was 12.91 when the moderate/high expression of integrin subunit β1 and laminin γ1 chain were combined. Conclusion: Our results suggest that integrin subunit β1 and laminin γ1 chain expressions could be a prognostic biomarker in CC.

Abstract
Studies of cervical cancer (CC) have reported that microRNA-16-1 (miR-16-1), which is an oncomiR, is increased in the tissues and cell lines of CC. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association of miRNA-16-1 expression level with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), the presence of squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL) and the integration of high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) DNA. The current study analyzed 80 samples obtained from women by liquid-based cytology, which revealed that 20 were negative for SIL (NSIL) and without HPV, 20 were low-grade SIL (LSIL), 20 were high-grade SIL (HSIL), and 20 were diagnosed as SCC with HR-HPV. The genotyping of the viral DNA was conducted via an INNO-LiPA-HPV array, the expression of miR-16-1 was determined by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR, and the physical state of the HR-HPV was ascertained by in situ hybridization with amplification with tyramide. A total of eight HR-HPV genotypes were distinguished; the most frequent of these being HPV16, followed by multiple infection with HR-HPV (including HPV16). The mixed state of the HR-HPV was observed in 60 and 65% of LSIL and HSIL cases, respectively, while an integrated HR-HPV state was identified in 90% of cases with SCC. The expression level of miR-16-1 increased according to the grade of SIL, and cases with HSIL exhibited a significantly higher miR-16-1 expression level compared with women with NSIL (P<0.001; Table II). It can therefore be determined that the expression of miR-16-1 effects cellular proliferation, due to the viral integration of various HR-HPV genotypes in unique infection or in multiple infection. Thus, the overexpression of miR-16-1 could be monitored in women with LSIL, in order to discard a major lesion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vaginal dysbiosis characterized by depleted lactobacilli is usually correlated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and cervical carcinogenesis, but the effect of the Lactobacillus genus and represented species on this process remains unclear. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, and CENTRAL databases were searched up to February 15, 2019. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using a fixed-effect model and Review Manager (version 5.3) for Mac. RESULTS Eleven studies comprising 1230 cases were included. Lactobacillus spp. was associated with the decreased detection of high-risk subtype (hr)HPV infection (OR = 0.64, 95% CI = 0.48-0.87, I2 = 6%), cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) (OR = 0.53, 95% CI = 0.34-0.83, I2 = 0%), and cervical cancer (CC) (OR = 0.12, 95% CI = 0.04-0.36, I2 = 0%). At the level of Lactobacillus species, Lactobacillus crispatus, but not Lactobacillus iners, was correlated with the decreased detection of hrHPV infection (OR = 0.49, 95% CI = 0.31-0.79, I2 = 10%) and CIN (OR = 0.50, 95% CI = 0.29-0.88, I2 = 0%). CONCLUSIONS Cervicovaginal Lactobacillus spp. is associated with the decreased detection of hrHPV infection, CIN, and CC; L. crispatus may be the critical protective factor.

Abstract
The application of detection technologies for human papillomavirus (HPV) has increased the resection rate for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and early cervical cancer types. However, a large number of patients still present with advanced cervical cancer upon diagnosis. Therefore, to find a marker for the early diagnosis of cervical cancer, the present study investigated the expression profiles of squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCCA), tumor metastasis related factor-1 (MTA1), the multiple tumor suppressor gene P16, and the nucleus-associated antigen Ki-67 in cervical lesions, and evaluated the association between the four proteins and the infection of high-risk (HR)-HPV in cervical lesions. The rate of SCCA expression gradually increased with the progression of cervical lesions, but the increase in SCCA expression levels from low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL) to high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions was not significant (P=0.197). The positive rate of MTA1 expression gradually increased with the development of cervical lesions, but the increase from chronic cervicitis to LSIL was not significant (P=0.258). The positive rates of P16 and Ki-67 expression exhibited significant increasing trends with the progression of cervical lesions. The expression ratio of SCCA between HR-HPV infection and non-infection groups was not statistically significant (P=0.38), but the expression ratios of MTA1, P16 and Ki-67 between HR-HPV infection and non-infection groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). These results demonstrated that the expression of SCCA, MTA1, P16 and Ki-67 increased gradually with the severity of cervical lesions. In addition, there was a positive association between the expression levels of MTA1, P16 and Ki-67 and the infection of HR-HPV in cervical lesions. Therefore, SCCA, MTA1, P16 and Ki-67 may be used to enhance the diagnostic accuracy for cervical lesions.

Abstract
Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) has a natural history of bidirectional transition between different states. Therefore, conventional statistical models assuming a unidirectional disease progression may oversimplify CIN fate. We applied a continuous-time multistate Markov model to predict this CIN fate by addressing the probability of transitions between multiple states according to the genotypes of high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV). This retrospective cohort comprised 6022 observations in 737 patients (195 normal, 259 CIN1, and 283 CIN2 patients at the time of entry in the cohort). Patients were followed up or treated at the University of Tokyo Hospital between 2008 and 2015. Our model captured the prevalence trend satisfactory, particularly for up to two years. The estimated probabilities for 2-year transition to CIN3 or more were the highest in HPV 16-positive patients (13%, 30%, and 42% from normal, CIN1, and CIN2, respectively) compared with those in the other genotype-positive patients (3.1%-9.6%, 7.6%-16%, and 21%-32% from normal, CIN1, and CIN2, respectively). Approximately 40% of HPV 52- or 58-related CINs remained at CIN1 and CIN2. The Markov model highlights the differences in transition and progression patterns between high-risk HPV-related CINs. HPV genotype-based management may be desirable for patients with cervical lesions.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the relationship between adenoid basal carcinoma (ABC), adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) in the uterine cervix. METHODS AND RESULTS We analysed the clinicopathological and molecular features in two pure ABCs, 15 SCCs with ABC-/ACC-like features and seven basaloid SCCs (BSCCs) by chart review, immunohistochemistry, human papillomavirus (HPV) RNA in-situ hybridisation and fluorescence in-situ hybridisation. All patients were alive with no evidence of disease, except for one patient with ACC-like features who died of disease at 18 months post diagnosis. The mixed carcinomas comprised variable SCCs and ABC-/ACC-like components displaying vague transitional zones. All components consistently showed diffuse p16, p63 and SOX2, variable cytokeratin (CK)7 and CK17 and rare Ber-EP4 and MYB expression; there was a substantially lower Ki67 index in pure ABCs and the ABC-like components. The ACC-like components showed no myoepithelial differentiation (SMA, calponin and S100) and MYB gene fusions. CK7, CK17 and Ber-EP4 were characteristically stronger in BSCCs than in the mixed carcinomas (P < 0.01). High-risk HPV (HR-HPV) E6/E7 mRNA was detected in 12 mixed carcinomas and seven BSCCs, but not in pure ABCs. The HR-HPV mRNA expression was higher in the SCC components and BSCCs than in the ABC-like components of mixed carcinomas (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The ACC-like components in mixed carcinomas probably represent the morphological mimics of salivary ACCs. ABC-like components may be the potential precursor of the ACC-like and SCC components. HR-HPV oncogenes may play a role in the pathogenesis of SCCs with ABC-/ACC-like features.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to determine the association of asymptomatic sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including Ureaplasma urealyticum (UU), Mycoplasma hominis (MH), Mycoplasma genitalium, Chlamydia trachomatis, and herpes simplex virus type 2, with high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) in cervical intraepithelial lesions and neoplasms. Methods A total of 320 hrHPV-positive and 160 hrHPV-negative women were divided into high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) + invasive cervical cancer and low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion + normal subgroups, respectively, on the basis of pathological cervical lesions. Cervical brush specimens were amplified and hybridized using polymerase chain reaction kits. Results MH was associated with hrHPV infection, but not with specific hrHPV genotypes or with single or multiple genotypes. Coinfection of hrHPV and UU serotype 14 (Uup14) showed an increased risk of HSILs and cervical carcinoma (odds ratio [OR]: 12.541, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.625–43.390). U. urealyticum biovar (Uuu) and Uup1 infections showed a similar increased risk (OR: 11.646, 95% CI: 1.493–90.850; OR: 7.474, 95% CI: 1.140–49.015, respectively) without hrHPV. Conclusions Asymptomatic STIs are widespread. This study shows an association between UU subtypes and cervical cancer, providing new insight into cervical lesion etiology. Screening for MH, Uup14, Uup1, and Uuu is important under different hrHPV statuses.

Abstract
High-risk human papillomaviruses (HR-HPVs) promote cervical cancer as well as a subset of anogenital and head and neck cancers. Due to their limited coding capacity, HPVs hijack the host cell's DNA replication and repair machineries to replicate their own genomes. How this host-pathogen interaction contributes to genomic instability is unknown. Here, we report that HPV-infected cancer cells express high levels of RNF168, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that is critical for proper DNA repair following DNA double-strand breaks, and accumulate high numbers of 53BP1 nuclear bodies, a marker of genomic instability induced by replication stress. We describe a mechanism by which HPV E7 subverts the function of RNF168 at DNA double-strand breaks, providing a rationale for increased homology-directed recombination in E6/E7-expressing cervical cancer cells. By targeting a new regulatory domain of RNF168, E7 binds directly to the E3 ligase without affecting its enzymatic activity. As RNF168 knockdown impairs viral genome amplification in differentiated keratinocytes, we propose that E7 hijacks the E3 ligase to promote the viral replicative cycle. This study reveals a mechanism by which tumor viruses reshape the cellular response to DNA damage by manipulating RNF168-dependent ubiquitin signaling. Importantly, our findings reveal a pathway by which HPV may promote the genomic instability that drives oncogenesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interleukin 12 (IL-12) and interleukin 12 receptor (IL12R), key inflammatory cytokines in the immune system, participate in bridging the innate immunity and adaptive immunity. No previous work has reported the role of IL-12 and IL12R in high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) susceptibility. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association of IL-12, IL12R polymorphisms, and serum IL-12 levels with hrHPV susceptibility in rural women from Luohe, Henan, China. METHODS Two hundred sixty cases with hrHPV infection and 260 healthy controls were selected. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to detect the serum IL-12 levels, and the polymorphisms of IL12B rs3212227, IL12RB1 rs393548, and IL12RB1 rs436857 were determined using DNA sequencing. RESULTS The serum IL-12 levels were significantly lower in cases with hrHPV infection compared with those in healthy controls (P < .01).There was no significant difference in IL12 rs3212227, IL12RB1rs436857, and IL12RB1rs393548 genotype and allele frequencies between cases and controls (P > .05). Furthermore, with respect to the IL12 rs3212227 polymorphism with serum IL-12 levels, although serum IL-12 levels were lower in cases than in controls, we did not find any differences between serum IL-12 levels and genotypes in cases(P > .05). CONCLUSIONS Our data demonstrates that low serum IL-12 levels may be associated with hrHPV susceptibility but are not associated with IL-12 gene polymorphisms; furthermore, IL-12 and IL12R gene polymorphisms may not contribute susceptibility to hrHPV in rural women from Luohe, Henan, China.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The scarcity of updated data on the prevalence of cervical human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries hampers the establishment of cervical cancer screening and HPV vaccination programs. The current study estimated the prevalence of cervical high-risk (HR) HPV infection among women residing in some countries of the GCC and analyzed the correlation between HR-HPV infection types and cytology results. METHODS In total, 2478 women residing in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain were enrolled in this study. Cervical specimens were subjected to simultaneous liquid-based cytology and HR-HPV DNA analysis. RESULTS Of 2478 women, 520 (21%) tested positive for HR-HPV. Other non-HPV genotype 16 (HPV16)/HPV18 HR-HPV was the most frequently detected infection type, accounting for 63.7%. Non-Arab women had a significantly higher HR-HPV positivity rate compared with Arab women (31.6% vs 16.4%; P < .001). The HR-HPV positivity rate was highest among women residing in Qatar (31.3%), followed by women living in Bahrain (20%), the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (17.2%), and the United Arab Emirates (14.7%). The overall prevalence of HR-HPV infections declined significantly with advancing age (P < .001). Women with abnormal cytology had a significantly higher HR-HPV positivity rate than those with normal cytology (50.6% vs 14.7%; P < .001). The HR-HPV positivity rate increased as the severity of the cytological lesion increased. CONCLUSIONS The current study provides updated data on HR-HPV prevalence in the GCC countries and delivers an evidence base for supporting the introduction of regional/national vaccination and screening programs in these countries.

Abstract
High-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection is a major etiological agent in the progression of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cervical cancer. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are carcinogenic pollutants that exist widely in the environment. We hypothesized that PAHs exposure was related to the progression of cervical cancer, and could increase the effect of HR-HPV on CIN. We investigated the effects of PAHs exposure combined with HR-HPV infection on CIN in community population in Shanxi Province, China. A total of 2,285 women were enrolled into the study. HR-HPV genotypes were detected by flow-through hybridization technology. 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHP) was detected by high-performance liquid chromatography. The top three HR-HPV genotypes were 16, 58 and 52 in turn. With unconditional logistic regression analysis, we found that HR-HPV infection (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 4.08, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.00-5.54), HPV16 infection (aOR = 4.71, 95% CI: 3.39-6.53), HPV58 infection (aOR = 2.29, 95% CI: 1.41-3.73) and PAHs high exposure (aOR = 2.57, 95% CI: 1.82-3.62) increased the risk of CIN2/3, showing an increasing trend (p < 0.001) with the severity of cervical lesions. Compared to Q1 (<0.06 μmol/molCr) levels of 1-OHP, women with Q4 (>0.11 μmol/molCr) had a higher risk for CIN2/3 (aOR = 7.68, 95% CI: 4.83-12.22). Additionally, we observed that there was a synergic effect between high exposure to PAHs and HR-HPV infection in CIN2/3. Furthermore, the results from the generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction model showed that there were joint interactions of PAHs, HPV16, HPV58 and HPV52 on the risk of CIN2/3. Our study revealed that high exposure to PAHs could increase the risk for CIN, and it posed stronger risk when combined with HR-HPV infection.

Abstract
High-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) infection plays an important role in the development of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cervical cancer. A total of 11 549 women were enrolled from the Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Hubei Province. Each participant accepted hrHPV testing and completed a self-administered questionnaire about basic information and potential risk factors. The univariable and multivariable logistic regression model was used to explore the associations between variants and hrHPV infection. Our results showed that hrHPV prevalence was 16.09% in Hubei Province, among which, hrHPV was more likely to be positive in women aged 51 years or above (OR=1.65, 95% CI: 1.28-2.14), and in women who had symptoms of bleeding after intercourse (OR=1.32, 95% CI:1.17-1.50), had first sexual intercourse at the age of 18 years or below (OR=1.33, 95% CI:1.07-1.64), had at least three male sexual partners (OR=2.50, 95% CI:2.07-3.03), and who had been diagnosed with sexually transmitted infections (OR=1.50, 95% CI:1.12-2.03). Married women (OR=0.66, 95% CI: 0.55-0.78) and women who frequently used condoms (OR=0.75, 95% CI:0.67-0.84) had a relatively lower hrHPV prevalence. This study confirms that hrHPV infection was associated with age, marital status, symptoms of intercourse bleeding, history of sexually transmitted infections, and sex-related behaviors. Above all, this study provides a baseline database prior to obtaining vaccinations for dynamic tracking of the changes in hrHPV prevalence.

Abstract
Cervical cancer is the fourth most common type of gynecological malignancy to affect females, worldwide. Although high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection is the primary etiologic agent associated with the development of cervical cancer, cancer stem cells (CSCs) also serve a prominent role in the development, metastasis, recurrence and prognosis of the disease. CSCs are a small subpopulation of cells that have the ability to self-renew and are present in the majority of tumors, including cervical cancer. Studies describing the phenotype of cervical CSCs (CCSCs) vary in their definition of the expression pattern of principal biomarkers, including Musashi-1, aldehyde dehydrogenase 1, Oct3/4, Sox2 and CD49f. However, these markers are not observed in all cancers, although several may be present in multiple tumor types. The present review describes the potential biomarkers of CSCs in cervical cancer. These CCSC biomarkers may serve as molecular targets to enhance the efficacy and reduce the side effects associated with chemotherapeutic treatment in HR-HPV-positive cervical cancer.

Abstract
Objectives: Understanding the prevalence and characteristics of high-risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) with the large-scale multicenter data based on a US FDA-approved testing method is important to guide ongoing vaccination programs in China. Methods: We conducted a retrospective observational study based on data from 11 large hospitals in central and eastern China. From October 1st, 2012 to December 31st, 2016, a total of 480,034 cervical specimens were collected, and 414,540 eligible participants (14-80 years, mean age 39.9 years) were included and tested using Cervista High-Risk HPV Assay (Hologic Inc., Bedford, Mass, USA). Results: The overall hrHPV prevalence in this study was 17.8% (73,713/414,540), with Wuhan slightly higher than Zhejiang (18.6% vs. 17.6%, P < 0.001). The prevalence showed a declining trend from 2012 to 2016. The most common hrHPV group was A9 (61.7%), followed by A5/A6 (29.4%) and A7 (25.6%). A U-shaped curve was observed for age-specific hrHPV prevalence: ≤19 years and ≥50 years were higher than other age groups. Conclusion: In pre-vaccination period, A9 was the most dominant hrHPV group, and infections were most likely to occur at younger and older ages. The prevalence of hrHPV varied by cities and age groups, suggesting vaccination programs should be propagated in a population-specific approach.

Abstract
We have tested a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) human papillomavirus (HPV) genotyping assay to fill the need for rapid and low-cost HPV detection in Sub-Saharan Africa. This method allows high throughput genotyping and simultaneous detection of 14 high-risk and two low-risk HPV types, by PCR amplification of HPV DNAs in a single reaction tube. In this study, we describe stepwise experiments to validate the multiplex HPV PCR assay for determination of HPV genotypes from 104 cervical brush samples from Tanzanian women. Assay performance was evaluated by determination of intra-laboratory reproducibility, sensitivity, and specificity. Further performance was assessed by comparison with the widely accepted and validated HPV My09/My11 amplification and hybridization assay. Statistics; the Cohen kappa (κ) and McNemar P values were used to analyze interobserver and intermethod agreement. Overall concordance between the multiplex and line blot hybridization assays was 99% (per sample) with a κ value equal to 0.95; and 96.49% (per detection event) with a κ value of 0.92. Interobserver reproducibility of the assay per sample was 95.76% with κ of 0.91. These results demonstrate that the multiplex HPV PCR assay has high analytical sensitivity and specificity in detecting as many as 16 different HPV genotypes and that its simplicity and low cost makes it well suited for sub-Saharan Africa.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persistent high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection is the etiological cause of virtually all cervical cancer cases. HR-HPV screening achieved with earlier generations of HR-HPV tests has been instrumental in the prevention and early detection of cervical cancer worldwide. The first FDA-approved HR-HPV test, digene Hybrid Capture 2 HPV DNA Test (HC2), has been prominent in these efforts. Newer tests have since been developed to improve upon the capability of HC2 test. METHODS To evaluate the performance of a new multiplex real-time quantitative PCR assay for HR-HPV detection, CerviHPV HR-HPV Test (CerviHPV), 232 cervical swab specimens were collected and analyzed by HC2 and CerviHPV tests for comparison. RESULTS HC2 test detected 69 (29.7%) positive cases, whereas CerviHPV test reported 43 (18.5%) positive cases. The concordance rate between the two tests was 84.5% with a kappa value of 0.579. Additional analyses identified only HPV66 or low-risk HPV (LR-HPV) types in six HC2 positive discordant cases, suggesting these HC2 results to be false positive. CONCLUSION CerviHPV test has two advantages over HC2 test: It contains a cellular control to eliminate false negative results due to failed sample collection and processing, and it can simultaneously detect and genotype the two most carcinogenic HPV types, HPV16 and 18. In this comparison study, CerviHPV test also demonstrated higher analytical specificity for HR-HPV genotypes than HC2 test. Therefore, CerviHPV test has the potential to become a viable option for cervical cancer screening in the clinics.

Abstract
Purpose To estimate the high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) prevalence in a hospital-based population using the Cervista® and to determine the clinical value and significance of Cervista for cervical cancer screening in Fujian Province, China. Patients and methods In a hospital-based population, a total of 10,771 women from the Fujian Province were screened for cervical cancer and precancerous lesions using the thinprep cytologic test (TCT) and/or the Cervista. Women with HR-HPV infection and/or abnormal TCT were referred for colposcopy and biopsy. Pathological diagnosis was used as the gold standard. Results The overall HR-HPV prevalence was 16.57%. Among 10,229 cases, 976 had abnormal cytology results, of which, the HR-HPV positivity rate was 60.35% in this opportunistic screening population. The most common HR-HPV infection style was a simple infection. The most common species was A9 which was also the most prevalent species in all age. The women with CIN2+ (high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion [HSIL]), especially cancer, were mostly concentrated in the age from 51 to 60 years old. The peak of CIN1 (low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion, LSIL) prevalence was in the women aged 31-40. When using CIN1+, CIN2+ and CIN3+ as observed endpoints, the sensitivities were 86.07%, 92.73%, and 93.30% and negative likelihood ratio (NPV) were 99.15%, 99.75% and 99.83%, respectively. Cervista and TCT co-testing achieved the highest sensitivity and the lowest NLR. Conclusion The Cervista could be easily introduced in clinical practice in combination with TCT for cervical cancer screening in China. Patients with species A9 infection require a more actively clinical intervention.

Abstract
Aim Although routine screening contributes to substantial reductions in cervical cancer morbidity and mortality, the low specificity of HPV detection and limited sensitivity of cervical cytology necessitates the application of more optimized markers, such as the newly-introduced p16/Ki-67 dual-staining method. Here we reviewed several studies to evaluate the performance of this method in cervical cancer screening. Methods An electronic database search was performed on PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI and Wanfang Database for studies assessing p16/Ki-67 dual immunostaining in the diagnosis of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasm (HGCIN) with abnormal cytological morphologies. Two reviewers screened literatures, extracted data and assessed the quality of the included studies independently. Meta-analysis was performed using ReV. Man 5.2 and Meta-DiSc 1.2 software packages. Results The absolute sensitivity of p16/Ki-67 dual staining for diagnosing HGCIN ranged from 80% to 94%, while the sensitivity of triage method with hrHPV testing ranged from 78% to 96%. The specificity of p16/Ki-67 testing and hrHPV detection for predicting absence of CIN2+ ranged from 39% to 79% and 15% to 44%, respectively. Quantitative meta-analysis showed that the pooled sensitivity of p16/ki-67 dual staining is 0.88 [95'CI (0.86-0.90)], the pooled specificity is 0.58 [95'CI (0.56-0.60)]. For hrHPV testing, the pooled sensitivity and pooled specificity is 0.94 [95'CI (0.93-0.96)] and 0.32 [95'CI (0.29-0.34)], respectively. Conclusions p16/Ki-67 dual immunostaining had comparable sensitivity and improved specificity in screening HGCIN or CC when compared with hrHPV detection. Further studies may be beneficial to assess the efficacy of this novel biomarker, which can be potentially used as one of the initial screening assays.

Abstract
Currently, clinical data for primary HPV screening alone are lacking in China. Here, we evaluate cervical cancer screening with primary HPV genotyping, as well as possible future screening strategy. Overall, high-risk HPV (hrHPV) prevalence was 18.2% among hospital-based population in Taizhou area. For cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 or worse (CIN2+), the sensitivity of primary hrHPV genotyping strategy and current cervical cancer screening strategy were 93.5%, and 71.1%, respectively; whereas the specificity was 17.5%, and 62.4%, respectively. Current cervical screening strategy had slightly higher positive predictive values (28.4%) for CIN2+ than hrHPV genotyping strategy (21.9%), whereas primary hrHPV genotyping strategy demonstrated higher negative predictive values (94.7%) than current cervical screening strategy (91.1%). Compared to HPV35/39/45/51/56/59/66/68 genotypes, the odds ratios (OR) for CIN2+ in HPV16/18/31/33/52/58 infection women were 3.2 (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.3-4.1). Primary hrHPV genotyping strategy provides a better predictive value than HPV16/18 genotyping alone in guiding the clinical management of the current cervical cancer screening. HPV testing without adjunctive cytology may be sufficiently sensitive for primary cervical cancer screening.

Squamous cell carcinoma of anus (SCCA) is one of the most frequent non-AIDS-defining diseases in HIV patients, mainly in men who have sex with men (MSM), and it is associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.To determine the prevalence of high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) genotypes, premalignant lesions (HSIL) and SCCA in a cohort of HIV-positive MSM; to study the distribution of HPV genotypes according to anal histology results; and to analyze risk factors for this infection.This prospective single-center study was conducted between May 2010 and September 2016. At the study visit, cotton swabs were used to collect anal samples for cytology study in ThinPrep Pap Test liquid medium (Thin Prep Processor 2000, Hologic Corp, USA), and for HPV PCR (Linear Array HPV Genotyping Test). After, high-resolution anoscopy (HRA) (Zeiss 150 fc) was carried out. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors for HR-HPV infection.The study included 319 patients, with mean age of 36.7 years; HR-HPV was detected in 81.3%. The prevalence of HSIL was 13.5% and SCCA was 0.3%. With regard to the distribution of HPV genotypes according to histology results, HPV 16 was the most frequent genotype in normal anal mucosa (26.7%), in LSILs (36.9%), and in HSILs (38%). In multivariate analysis, CD4 nadir < 200 cells/μL was the factor associated with infection by HR-HPV (OR 3.66, 95% CI 1.05%-12.75%).HIV-positive MSM showed a high prevalence of HSIL+ lesions and of infection by oncogenic HPV, which appears to be favored by a deficient immune system. HPV 16 was the most frequently isolated genotype in anal mucosa, regardless of lesion type.
