Abstract
In Japan, government support for human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination began in November 2010. However, the mass media repeatedly reported on severe adverse events. The Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare suspended proactive recommendations for HPV vaccines in June 2013. Japan's HPV vaccination rate dropped from 70% to less than 1% in 2017.We examined cervical cancer screening results in terms of abnormal cytology, histology, and HPV vaccination status among 11,903 women aged 20 to 25 y in the fiscal year 2015. The overall rate of HPV vaccination was 26.1% (3,112/11,903). Regarding cytology, the rate of atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) or worse was 3.3% (103/3,112) in women who received HPV vaccination (vaccine (+) women) and 5.6% (496/8,791) in women who did not (vaccine (-) women). The rate of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) or worse was 0.26% (8/3,112) in vaccine (+) women and 0.81% (72/8,791) in vaccine (-) women. Regarding histology, the rate of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 1 or worse (CIN1+) was 1.4% (42/3,112) in vaccine (+) women and 2.1% (178/8,791) in vaccine (-) women. The rates of CIN2+ and CIN3+ were similar regardless of vaccination. We found a significantly lower incidence of CIN in vaccine (+) women. These results suggest that the resumption of recommending HPV vaccination as primary prevention for cervical cancer is needed in Japan.

Abstract
In Japan, uterine cancer screening during pregnancy is subsidized by public funds. We examined the current status of the results of cervical cytology conducted during pregnancy in Japan. We requested 2,293 obstetrical facilities to provide information on cervical cytology in pregnant women who delivered between October 2018 and March 2019. A total of 1,292 obstetrical facilities responded, with valid information on a total of 238,743 women. The implementation rate of cervical cytology during pregnancy was 86.8% in Japan. The prevalence of abnormal cervical cytology during pregnancy was 3.3% in total and 4.9% using a spatula/brush with liquid-based cytology (LBC). The prevalence of positive high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) in teenagers with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) was significantly higher than women of other ages (p < 0.01). Because HPV vaccine coverage has dropped to less than 1% in Japan, a further study with various conditions will be needed to improve the accuracy of cervical cancer screening during pregnancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine coverage is very low in Japan since the government suspended the active encouragement of the vaccination. We aimed to conduct a benefit-risk assessment of HPV vaccination and explore different consequent scenarios to identify potential improvements to the current Japanese immunization program. METHODS To calculate social benefit-risk of HPV vaccine, we used the Markov model to represent the natural history of HPV and adverse events (AEs) using disability-adjusted life year (DALY) as the outcome. Benefits and risks were calculated as the sum of negative and positive outcomes corresponding to all preventable diseases and AEs associated with HPV vaccination, respectively. The benefit-risk balance in 2050 was estimated using published data. RESULTS Our model was confirmed by published cervical cancer incidence and mortality rates. The benefit-risk balance in 2050 showed that the most effective scenario was the introduction of 9-valent HPV vaccine targeting female individuals aged 10-29 years for routine vaccination starting in 2020, although there is possibility of increased risks of AEs for the vaccinated age group post resumption of recommendations. CONCLUSION Our benefit-risk assessment of HPV vaccine helped estimate various scenarios pertaining to HPV vaccination and identify the best strategy regarding HPV vaccination. This benefit-risk assessment approach may be used for other vaccines and vaccination programs.

[PMID: 32422939 PMCID: PMC7349125 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines8020221] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2020] [Revised: 05/08/2020] [Accepted: 05/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives: Epidemiological reports of sexual life and human papilloma virus (HPV) infection among Japanese men are scarce, and the necessity of HPV vaccines for males is regarded as a controversial topic in Japan. The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence, genotype distribution, and risk factors against HPV infections targeted by bivalent (2v), quadrivalent (4v), and 9-valent (9v) HPV vaccines among Japanese male patients who visited our urological clinics. Material and Methods: The study population consisted of 798 males aged 20 to 95 years (mean ± standard deviation, 55.4 ± 19.5 years). We collected scraping samples from the glans penis using cotton swabs from all patients for genotyping of HPVs. We compared patients’ characteristics and detected HPV genotypes in order to determine the risk factors against HPV infections. Results: Of 798 participants, 198 participants (198/798; 24.8%) had at least one genotype of any HPV infection. The total number of detected HPV genotypes was 328. Of 328 genotypes, 30% (n = 99; 99/328) were 9v HPV genotypes. Most frequently detected types of high-risk HPV infection were type 52 (n = 40; 40/328; 12.2%). Number of lifetime sex partners (≥21) and present or history of sexually transmitted infections were found to be predictors of any HPV infection with adjusted odds ratios of 3.106 (95% confidence interval (CI), 1.593–6.509) and 1.894 (95% CI, 1.185–3.026), respectively. Age of sex initiation was a predictor of 2v and 4v HPV infections with adjusted odds ratios of 100 (95% CI, 1.013–25.673) and 2.676 (95% CI, 1.037–6.905), respectively. Number of lifetime sex partners (≥21) was a predictor of 9v HPVs with adjusted odds ratios of 2.397 (95% CI, 1.060–5.424). Conclusions: Approximately, a quarter of Japanese male patients who visited urological clinics were exposed to HPV. Moreover, from the perspective of our multivariate logistic regression analysis, some kinds of sexual behavior aggravate the risk of typical HPV genotypes infections.

Abstract
Vaginal intraepithelial neoplasia (VAIN) is often found by chance. We investigated the prevalence of VAIN and related human papillomavirus (HPV) types in comparison with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). This study enrolled 648 women who were referred to the outpatient clinic of Kanazawa Medical University Hospital for abnormal cytology from January 2009 to January 2019. HPV genotypes were determined using Genosearch-31 + 4, which can detect 35 different HPV types. Colposcopy was performed at the first visit by an experienced gynecological oncologist. Among 611 subjects with squamous cell lesions, 107 (17.5%) VAIN cases were identified, and 67 (11.0%) women had both VAIN and CIN. Ultimately, 72 VAIN1, 15 VAIN2/3, 203 CIN1, 249 CIN2/3, 32 cervical squamous cell carcinomas (SCC), and one vaginal SCC (Vag-SCC) were identified. The prevalences of VAIN1, VAIN2/3, and Vag-SCC were 35.5%, 6.0%, and 3.1% of equivalent cervical lesions, respectively. The VAIN patients were older than the CIN patients (P = .002). About half of the VAIN cases were diagnosed during the follow-up. Multiple HPV infections were found in 42.9% of the VAIN and CIN patients. HPV52, 16, 51, 53, and 56 were the most common types in VAIN, whereas HPV16, 52, 58, 51, and 31 predominated in CIN. HPV18 was rare in VAIN, HPV58 was more common in CIN than in VAIN, and HPV53 and HPV73 were more common in VAIN. In conclusion, VAIN1 was identified more frequently than we expected. Various HPV types were identified in the vagina, which is likely a reservoir for HPV.

Abstract
Objective: Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination was introduced in Japan in
April 2013, as a national immunization program for girls aged 12–16 years, after an
initial introduction in 2010 as a public-aid program for girls aged 13–16 years. The
Yuri-Honjo district had the highest vaccine coverage among women aged 17–51 years in 2017,
due to the original public-aid program. The aim of this study was to evaluate the
differences in the vaccine types of HPV16/18 infections between 2008–2012 (pre-vaccine
era) and 2013–2017 (vaccine era). Materials and Methods: We evaluated whether HPV vaccination was associated
with a decrease in the prevalence of HPV16/18 and high-risk HPV and the incidence of
HPV-associated cervical lesions. A total of 1,342 women aged 18–49 years, covering both
the pre-vaccine and vaccine eras, who visited Yuri Kumiai General Hospital and underwent
HPV genotype tests from June 2008 to December 2017 were compared. Results: Among women aged 18–24 years with higher vaccine coverage (68.2%),
the prevalence of HPV16/18 and high-risk HPV decreased from 36.7% and 69.4%, respectively,
in the pre-vaccine era to 5.8% and 50.0%, respectively, in the vaccine era (p=0.00013 and
p=0.047, respectively). Among those with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2− and
grade 2+, HPV16/18 prevalence decreased from 30.0% to 2.7% (p=0.0018) and from 81.8% to
36.4% (p=0.030), respectively. In this age group, the rate of HPV16/18 positivity
decreased significantly. Among age groups with lower vaccine coverage, HPV prevalence did
not significantly differ between the two eras. Conclusion: The prevalence of HPV16/18 and high-risk HPV significantly
decreased in women aged 18–24 years, most of whom were vaccinated. HPV vaccination
effectively reduced the prevalence of HPV16/18 infections in the Yuri-Honjo district.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) is a major cause of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and invasive cervical cancer. We investigated the prevalence of HR-HPV infection and distribution of viral genotypes among women in this area. METHODS Women in Sichuan older than 20 years were screened for cervical cancer between January 2015 and December 2016 using liquid-based cytology testing and a flow cytometry-fluorescence hybridization test for HPV-DNA. Frequency tables were evaluated using the chi-squared test (χ2). RESULTS Of the 17,319 women aged 20-85 years who participated in the study, Overall prevalence of HR-HPV infection was 12.6% (2178/17,319). The most prevalent viral type was HPV-52, which was present in 2.5% of individuals, followed by HPV-53 (1.6%), HPV-58 (1.5%), HPV-16 (1.1%), HPV-56 (0.9%), HPV-39 (0.8%). In HSIL, the five most common HR-HPV types were HPV52, 16, 58, 33 and 56. HPV16/18 in HSIL only makes up 25.9% of HSIL, whereas HPV31/33/45/52/58 make up 56.8%. Overall HR-HPV prevalence among women older than 65 years was 15.2%, significantly higher than the prevalence in other age groups (P < 0.05). Infection with dual or multiple HR-HPV types was associated with greater risk of abnormal cytology. CONCLUSION Overall HR-HPV prevalence in Sichuan is as high as in large cities in China. The HR-HPV types 52, 16, 58, 33 and 56 predominated in this sample of HSIL women primarily from the banking and public sector in Sichuan. High prevalence among women older than 65 years needed pay attention to.

Abstract
Cervical cancer is one of the common malignancies in women worldwide. Exploration of pathogenesis and molecular mechanism of cervical cancer is pivotal for development of effective treatment for this disease. Recently, systems biology approaches based on high-throughput technologies have been carried out to investigate the expression of some genes and proteins in genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabonomics of cervical cancer. Compared with traditional methods,systems biology technology has been shown to provide large of information regarding prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for cervical cancer. These molecular signatures from system biology technology could be useful to understand the molecular mechanisms of cervical cancer development and progression, and help physicians to design targeted therapeutic strategies for patients with cervical cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To provide a scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of cervical cancer (CC), we investigated the distribution characteristics and genotypes of human papillomavirus (HPV) and the prevalence of multiple HPV infections in women of different ages seeking management for abnormal cytology in Foshan City. METHODS Screening for the 21 genotypes of HPV was carried out in 9945 females seeking management of abnormal cervical cytology results using rapid flow-through hybridization of nucleic acid molecules. The overall prevalence, genotype distribution and age-specific prevalence were examined. RESULTS Our results indicate that the prevalence of overall, high-risk, intermediate-risk, and low-risk HPV infections was 13.5%, 12.1%, 1.3%, and 1.9%, respectively. Of the 1346 women who tested positive, 89.5% were positive for a single HPV genotype, and 10.5% were positive for ≥2 genotypes. The most frequently detected HPV genotype was HPV-16 (2.9%), followed by HPV-52 (2.9%), HPV-58 (1.5%), and HPV-CP8304 (1.0%). The highest infection prevalence was found in patients 21-30 years old (271/1670, 16.2%). CONCLUSION The prevalence of HPV infection in women seeking management for abnormal cytology in Foshan City is highest in the younger population (21-30 years old). Similar to most previous surveys, HPV-58 and HPV-52 infections are as common as HPV-16 infection.

Abstract
A multi-center study was conducted to examine 6,628 eligible Japanese women aged from 16 to 50 years for uterine cervical abnormality and HPV infection with a liquid based-cytology test and a novel HPV test using the PCR-SSOP-Luminex(®) method identifying 31 HPV genotypes. In 3,047 normal subjects, the overall prevalence across all HPV types was 25%, while that of the common 13 high-risk (Common-13HR) types (HPV-16, 18. 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, and 68) was 17%, and that of the definite high-risk (Definite-HR) types (HPV-16, 18. 31, 33, 35, 45, 52, and 58) was 12%. For Definite-HR, HPV-52, 16, and 58 were the most common, HPV-31 was relatively common, and HPV-18 was less common, while HPV-33, 35, and 45 were rare. Seven Definite-HR excluding HPV-45 and seven Possible-HR (HPV-39, 51, 56, 66, 68, 70, and 82) HPV types were identified as a single type infection in patients with high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) or worse. The Common-13HR types were detected in 89% of subjects with HSIL, whereas either Definite-HR or Possible-HR types were detected in 95% of HSIL. These 1420 HPV types appear to be involved with HSIL or worse in Japan. The prevalences of multiple-type HPV infections were identified in roughly half of HPV-positive subjects, and decreased significantly with age in normal population and abnormal cytology groups, although the prevalences of single-type infections increased with age in the latter group. Most HPV infections are cleared for some years, while a certain HR-HPV type persists to induce HSIL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oral human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is associated with oral cancer development. However, few epidemiologic investigations have focused on oral HPV prevalence in healthy individuals. The objective of this study was to provide updated information regarding oral HPV prevalence in patients without oral cancer worldwide. METHODS We systematically reviewed 29 studies reporting the prevalence of oral HPV infection that included 22,756 subjects (10,124 males, 12,623 females, and nine unknown gender; age range 2 - 89 years) and were published from January 2012 to June 2015. RESULTS The prevalence of overall HPV, low-risk type HPV, high-risk type HPV, and HPV16 in the reported cases was 5.5%, 2.2%, 2.7%, and 1.0%, respectively. The prevalence of overall HPV was considerably higher in males who had sex with males (12.2%) as compared to heterosexual males (4.7%) and females (2.9%). A meta-analysis was performed to elucidate significant risk factors for oral HPV infection, which revealed a significant statistical association for oral sex and smoking with oral HPV infection (odds ratio (OR): 1.90, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.51 - 2.39, P < 0.0001; OR: 2.13, 95% CI: 1.32 - 3.43, P = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest that sexual behavior and smoking are importantly related to oral HPV infection in healthy individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some infectious agents have been shown to be human carcinogens. The current study focused on estimation of cancer burden attributable to infection in different regions of Asia. METHODS By systematically reviewing previous studies of the infection prevalence data of 13 countries in Asia and relative risks of specific cancers, we calculated the population attributable fraction of carcinogenic infections. Using data from GLOBOCAN 2012, the overall country-specific and gender-specific number of new cancer cases and deaths resulting from infection were estimated. RESULTS Across 13 principal Asian countries, the average prevalence and range was 6.6% (0.5% in Japanese women to 15.0% in Vietnamese men) for hepatitis B virus (HBV), 2.6% (0.3% in Iran to 5.1% in Saudi Arabia) for hepatitis C virus (HCV), 7.9% (2.8% in Pakistan to 17.7% in China) for human papillomavirus (HPV), and 61.8% (12.8% in Indonesia to 91.7% in Bangladesh) for Helicobacter pylori (HP). The estimated total number of cancer cases and deaths caused by infection in these 13 countries were 1 212 026 (19.6% of all new cancer cases) and 908 549 (22.0% of all deaths from cancer). The fractions of cancer incidence attributable to infection were 19.7% and 19.5% in men and women, respectively. The percentages of cancer deaths attributable to infection were 21.9% and 22.1% in men and women, respectively. Among the main infectious agents, HP was responsible for 31.5% of infection-related cancer cases and 32.8% of infection-related cancer deaths, followed by HBV (28.6% of new cases and 23.8% of deaths), HPV (22.0% of new cases and 27.3% of deaths), and HCV (12.2% of new cases and 10.6% of deaths). CONCLUSIONS Approximately one quarter of all cancer cases and deaths were infection-associated in Asia, which could be effectively prevented if appropriate long-term controls of infectious agents were applied.

Abstract
Human papilloma virus (HPV) infection is a precursor of cervical cancer. This study aimed to introduce a method to quantify the risk of cervical cancer resulting from infection by different HPV subtypes, to help guide patient treatment. Nucleic acid molecule flow-through hybridization and gene chip technology were used to test 6,510 non-cervical cancer healthy volunteers (≤CIN-I) and 204 cervical cancer patients (≥CIN-III) from Dongying City for 21 HPV subtypes (HPV-16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 68, 6, 11, 42, 43, 44, 53, 66 and CP8304) in exfoliated cervical cells. The positive proportion of HPV subtypes was calculated, excluding or including patients with multiple subtype infections. The lower (L) and upper (H) limits of the carcinogenic risk score range were calculated, respectively. The values of carcinogenic index ± uncertainty in the carcinogenic ability (CI ± U) were also calculated. CI = (H + L)/2 represents the carcinogenic risk of the different subtypes, and U =(H - L)/2 represents the probability of each subtype being present in multiple infections. Infection rates were 15.87 and 96.57%, and HPV subtypes with high infection rates were HPV-16, 52, 58, 33, 18, and 31 and HPV-16, 31, 58, 18, 68, and 33 in the non-cervical cancer and cervical cancer groups, respectively. HPV subtypes with high risk of cervical cancer were HPV-31 (3.71 ± 0.68), 51 (2.65 ± 0.44), 18 (2.03 ± 0.43), 68 (1.76 ± 0.40), 58 (1.68 ± 0.49), and 16 (1.39 ± 0.33). We have provided a quantitative method for expressing HPV subtype carcinogenic risk.

Abstract
Background Cervical cancer is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in Thai women. Nevertheless, the preventive strategy such as HPV vaccination program has not been implemented at the national level. This study explored the HPV prevalence and genotypic distribution in a large cohort of Thai women. Methods A hospital-based cervical cancer screening program at Chulabhorn Hospital, Bangkok and a population-based screening program at a rural Pathum Thani Province were conducted using liquid-based cytology and HPV genotyping. Results Of 5906 women aged 20–70 years, Pap smear was abnormal in 4.9% and the overall HPV prevalence was 15.1%, with 6.4% high-risk (HR), 3.5% probable high-risk (PR), and 8.4% low-risk (LR) HPV. The prevalence and genotypic distribution were not significantly different between the two cohorts. Among HR-HPV genotypes, HPV52 was the most frequent (1.6%), followed by HPV16 (1.4%), HPV51 (0.9%), HPV58 (0.8%), HPV18 (0.6%), and HPV39 (0.6%). Among LR-HPV genotypes, HPV72 and HPV62 were the most frequent while HPV6 and HPV11 were rare. HPV infection was found to be proportionately high in young women, aged 20–30 years (25%) and decreasing with age (11% in women aged >50). The more severe abnormal cytology results, the higher positivity of HR-HPV infection was observed. Conclusions In conclusion, HPV52, HPV16, and HPV51 were identified as the most common HR-HPV genotypes in Thai women. This study contributes genotypic evidence that should be essential for the development of appropriate HPV vaccination program as part of Thailand’s cervical cancer prevention strategies.

Abstract
Background
Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines and their widespread adoption have the potential to relieve a large part of the burden of cervical cancer morbidity and mortality, particularly in countries that have low screening rates or, like Japan, lack a cohesive universal screening program. An economic evaluation was conducted to assess the cost-effectiveness of introducing a bivalent HPV vaccination program in Japan from a healthcare perspective. Methods: A Markov model of the natural history of HPV infection that incorporates both vaccination and screening was developed for Japan. The modelled intervention, a bivalent HPV vaccine with a 100% lifetime vaccine efficacy and 80% vaccine coverage, given to a cohort of 12-year-old Japanese girls in conjunction with the current screening program, was compared with screening alone in terms of costs and effectiveness. A discount rate of 5% was applied to both costs and utilities where relevant. Results: Vaccination alongside screening compared with screening alone is associated with an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of US$20 315 per quality-adjusted-life-year gained if 80% coverage is assumed. The ICER at 5% coverage with the vaccine plus screening, compared with screening alone, is US$1158. Conclusion: The cost-effectiveness results suggest that the addition of a HPV vaccination program to Japan’s cervical cancer screening program is highly likely to prove a cost-effective way to reduce the burden of cervical cancer, precancerous lesions and HPV16/18-related diseases.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is associated with several disorders of the genital tract, skin, and oropharynx. This study investigated the prevalence of infection by 37 HPV genotypes among women of the Beijing area in China. Cervical specimens from 1,082 patients and 165 healthy controls were tested for HPV genotypes using a chip hybridization assay. Based on the local pathology, patients were divided into cervicitis and cervical lesion groups. Overall HPV infection rates were 30.5% for the cervicitis group and 78.4% for the cervical lesion group; whereas infection rates for high-risk HPV types (i.e., those associated with cervical cancers) were 24.0% and 73.4%, respectively. The most common HPV genotypes were HPV 52, 16, 81, 58, and 18 in healthy controls, HPV 52, 61, 55, 16, and 53 in those with cervicitis, HPV 52, 16, 33, 39, and 58 in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 1, HPV 16, 58, 31, 52, and 33 in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 2 or grade 3, and HPV 16, 33, 18, 52, and 58 in cervical cancer. Established high-risk HPV showed two peaks, in patients aged 30-34 and 55-79 years. In Beijing, HPV 16, 52, 58, and 33 are the most prevalent HPV types in women with cervical lesions, which should affect development of a cervical cancer vaccination for local use.

Abstract
HPV 58 is detected commonly in cervical cancer in East Asian countries. To evaluate the HPV 58 physical state, the amplification of papillomavirus oncogene transcripts (APOT) and hybridisation assays were established. Episome- and integrate-derived transcripts were confirmed by direct sequencing. Twenty-nine HPV 58 positive samples from various cervical lesions were used. The results showed that the episome-derived transcripts were recognised as two major specific amplified products (1040 and 714 bp). Two splice donor sites were mapped to the 5' splice site of the E1 gene on SD898 and SD899 and spliced to the 3' acceptor site of the E4 gene on SA3353, SA3356 and SA3365. The episome-derived transcripts were found 100% in normal cervical epithelia and low-grade lesions (9/9 cases) while the integrate-derived transcripts were detected in 13.3% of high-grade lesions (2/15 cases) and in 20% of carcinomas (1/5 cases). HPV 58 integration sites were found on chromosomes 4q21, 12q24 and 18q12. Using the established APOT assay, the results revealed not only novel information on the HPV 58 transcription patterns of episomal transcripts, but also integration site. The APOT assay is a reliable and useful tool for the detection of the HPV 58 physical state and its oncogene expression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the main cause of cervical cancer. Limited epidemiologic data of HPV prevalence are available for women attending hospitals in southern China. This study aimed to evaluate the profiles of HPV infection and cytology status in gynecological outpatients in Chaozhou City. METHODS A total of 2833 eligible women were enrolled. The HPV GenoArray test was used for HPV detection and genotyping. Nearly one half of the HPV positive women received liquid-based cytology test. Logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the predictable effects of age and genotype for categories of abnormal cytology. RESULTS The prevalence of overall, high-risk, and low-risk HPV infection were 24.5%, 19.5% and 8.4%, respectively. A U-shaped age-specific prevalence curve was observed in overall HPV and high- risk HPV, but not in low-risk HPV, which declined with age increasing. The 6 most common high-risk HPV type in descending order, were types 52, 16, 58, 18, 68, and 33. Age and HPV genotype were both important determinants of abnormal cytology incidence, the older women (>45 years) and those infected with HPV type 16 and/or 18 having the highest risk for abnormal cytology. CONCLUSION Our findings support the hypothesis that second-generation HPV prophylactic vaccines including HPV-52 and -58 may offer higher protection for women residing in Chaozhou and neighboring cities in Guangdong.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the prevalence of high-risk HPV types among female sex workers and the general population in Huzhou, China. METHODS Cervical samples from the general population (n=292) and female sex workers (n=288) in Huzhou, China, were collected between April, 2008, and October, 2009. Demographic, behavioral, and clinical data were obtained by interview. Genotyping of the HPV L1 gene was done via a PGMY09/PGMY11 PCR-based assay, and the cervical samples were subjected to cytology analysis. RESULTS The prevalence of HPV was higher among female sex workers (66.7%) than among the general population (19.2%). Among female sex workers, HPV-16 (28.8%) was the most prevalent, followed by HPV-58 (24.0%) and HPV-52 (20.8%). The percentage of cervical abnormalities was higher among female sex workers (20.8%) than among the general population (4.8%). Multivariate analysis showed that education level and condom use during coitus were significantly associated with HPV infection (P<0.05). HPV-16, HPV-58 and HPV-52 were the dominant types, and were significantly associated with abnormal cervical cytology (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Female sex workers in Huzhou, China, were found to have a greater probability of being infected with high-risk HPV, and novel vaccines against HPV-58 and HPV-52 should be developed. Using condoms could reduce the risk of infection.

Abstract
Background Human papilloma virus (HPV) infection was the main cause of cervical cancer. There were only a few reports and detailed data about epidemiological research of HPV infection in rural population of China. Materials and Methods The cervical cells of rural Chaozhou women were collected, and multiplex real time PCR was firstly performed to detect high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) infection, which could detect 13 types of HR-HPV (types 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, and 68). Then, HPV-positive samples were typed by HPV GenoArray test. Results HR-HPV DNA was detected by multiplex real time-PCR in 3830 of 48559 cases (7.89%). There was a peak incidence in age of 55–60 years group, and a lower incidence in who lived in plain group compared with suburban, mountain and seashore group. 3380 cases of HPV positive sample were genotyped, 11.01% (372/3380) cases could not be classified, among the typed 3008 cases, 101 cases were identified without HR-HPV type infection, 2907 cases were infected with one HR-HPV type at least, the 6 most common HR-HPV types in descending order of infection, were type 52 (33.4%, 16 (20.95%), 58 (15.93%), 33 (9.94%), 68 (9.22%) and 18 (8.36%). The combined prevalence of HPV types 16 and 18 accounted for 28.52% of total infection. However, type 52 plus 58 presented 48.23% of total infection. 2209/2907 cases were infected with a single HPV type and 698/2907 cases were infected with multiple types, and multiple infection constituent ratio increased with age, with a peak incidence in age 55–60 years group. Conclusions Our findings showed low prevalence of HPV vaccine types (16 and 18) and relatively high prevalence of HPV-52 and -58, support the hypothesis that the second-generation HPV vaccines including HPV-52 and -58 may offer higher protection for women in rural Guangdong Province.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the pre-vaccination epidemiology of genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infections and genotypes in women with abnormal cytology in Nagasaki, Japan. MATERIAL AND METHODS We performed Pap smear tests, biopsies and HPV genotype testing in Nagasaki Prefecture from August 2007 through November 2009. RESULTS During the study period, serial samples of uterine cervical specimens were obtained from 539 subjects with abnormal cytology and/or squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL) confirmed previously, or with clinically suspected invasive cervical cancer. In 119 HPV-positive subjects with low-grade SIL, the three most prevalent high-risk HPV genotypes were HPV52 (21.8%; 26/119), HPV16 (20.2%; 24/119) and HPV56 (17.6%; 21/119). In 199 women, 127 HPV-positive subjects with high-grade SIL and 67 HPV-positive subjects with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), the three most prevalent high-risk HPV genotypes were HPV16 (44.3%; 86/194), HPV52 (20.6%; 40/194) and HPV58 (16.0%; 31/194). CONCLUSION Compared with the distribution of high-risk HPV genotypes in other countries, HPV52 was a more common genotype in Nagasaki. With disease progression to SCC, the distribution of high-risk HPV56 belonging to the A6 HPV family decreased, while HPV16 and HPV52 belonging to the A9 HPV family persisted. Our data provide an important resource to address the case for vaccination against HPV genotypes other than HPV16 and HPV18 in Japan.

Abstract
Background Persistent high-risk type Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is recognized as a necessary cause of cervical cancer. This study aimed to compare the HPV prevalence and risk factors between women residing in Hong Kong (HK) and Guangzhou (GZ) region of China. Methodology/Principal Findings A total of 1,570 and 1,369 women were recruited from HK and GZ, respectively. The cytology samples were collected and tested for HPV infection. The overall and type-specific HPV prevalence and the potential risk factors for acquisition of HPV infection were studied. Women with normal cytology in the GZ cohort had significantly higher HPV prevalence (10%) than those in the HK cohort (6.2%, p<0.001). The patterns of the age-specific HPV prevalence were also different between the two cohorts. In the HK cohort, women at the age of 20–29 years old had the highest prevalence and a second peak was observed in the age of ≥60 years old. In the GZ cohort, the highest HPV prevalence was also observed in 20–29 years old but declined as the age increased and a second peak was not seen. HPV16 and HPV52 were the most common high-risk types found in the HK and GZ cohorts, respectively. Age was the most consistently observed independent risk factor for HPV infection in the HK, while the number of sexual partners had association in the GZ cohort. Conclusions/Significance Our study provides the current status and the epidemiological characteristics of HPV prevalence in Southern Chinese women. The results strongly suggested that population education and the effective cervical cancer screening would be vital in the prevention of cervical cancer.

Abstract
To determine the clinical implications and prognostic value of the human papillomavirus (HPV) genotype, we evaluated the various HPV types in patients receiving radiotherapy for squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix. The study population included 113 invasive squamous cell carcinoma patients treated with radiation or chemoradiation between 1993 and 2002. The median age of the patients was 61 years. Tumors were classified by the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics staging as stage IB in 11 patients, stage II in 39, stage III in 57 and stage IVA in 6 patients. To investigate HPV infection and its genotypes in the tumor specimens, L1 consensus PCR was performed followed by the direct nucleotide sequencing of the PCR products. Ninety-five samples (84.1%) were positive for HPV DNA. The most prevalent type was HPV-16 (34.7%). Poorer response to radiotherapy was observed in the patients with the HPV-16 genotype, in which 7 of the 33 patients had persistent disease. Only 1 of the 10 patients with HPV-58, 1 of the 5 with HPV-31 and 5 of the 10 patients with HPV-33 had a recurrence. The 5-year survival rate was 90, 80, 69.4 and 39% in the HPV-58, HPV-31, HPV-16 and HPV-33 type groups, respectively. Patients with HPV-31 and HPV-58 types were found to have better survival, whereas patients with the HPV-33 type experienced a higher risk of death. HPV genotyping may serve as a potential biomarker of response to radiation and prognosis in cervical carcinoma patients undergoing radio- or chemoradiotherapy.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to clarify the relation of human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes and physical status in the cervical neoplasm of Japanese patients with the grade of the disease. Human papillomavirus genotype was detected using a linear array genotyping assay. Human papillomavirus status, diffuse or punctate signal pattern, was studied by biotynyl-tyramide-based in situ hybridization for positive cases of HPV-16. Human papillomavirus types 16, 52, 58, and 31, in descending order of frequency, were prevalent. The rates of HPV infection in patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) or squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) were significantly higher than those in patients without cervical lesions. The frequency of HPV single infection in SCC was higher than that in CIN1 or CIN2. In an unspecified-risk HPV, types 66 and 70 were found in SCC and 62, 71, and 82 were detected in CIN3. The diffuse pattern was more frequent in CIN, and the punctate pattern was more frequent in SCC. Human papillomavirus types 16, 52, 58, and 31 were frequently detected in Japanese women with cervical neoplasias, and several unspecified-risk HPVs might be high-risk types. A single infection of HPV and a punctate signal pattern seemed to be closely correlated with cervical carcinogenesis.

Abstract
High-risk human papillomavirus (H-HPV) infection is strongly linked to cervical neoplasia, but its role in detecting glandular lesions (GLs) is unclear. In the cervix, carbonic anhydrase IX (CA-IX) is expressed in cervical neoplasia, but rarely in the benign cervix. The diagnostic utility of these biomarkers was evaluated in women with a cytologic diagnosis of atypical glandular cells (AGC). H-HPV was detected using hybrid capture 2 (HC2) in liquid-based cytology, and CA-IX immunoreactivity was studied on conventional Pap smears. Of 403 patients, 111 (28%) were positive for significant cervical lesions (SCLs) including CIN2, CIN3, adenocarcinoma in situ or invasive carcinoma. CA-IX testing alone (n = 403) had a sensitivity of 75, 95 or 65% for SCLs, significant GLs or squamous lesions (SLs), respectively, with a specificity of 88% and a false negative rate (FNR defined as 1 minus negative predictive value) of 10%. Testing for H-HPV (n = 122) had a sensitivity of 97, 100 or 96% for SCLs, GLs or SLs, respectively, with a specificity of 87% and a FNR of 1%. The combination of CA-IX and H-HPV testing (n = 122), collectively, had the same sensitivity, specificity and FNR for SCLs, GLs or SLs as H-HPV testing alone. The conclusions of our study are that both H-HPV and CA-IX testing are useful diagnostic markers for GLs. However, H-HPV testing is a better diagnostic marker for SLs. The combination of CA-IX with H-HPV testing does not improve the diagnostic accuracy for cervical neoplasia in women with AGC diagnosis over that of H-HPV testing alone.

Abstract
Adenosquamous carcinoma of the uterine cervix is a rare mixture of malignant squamous and glandular epithelial elements and accounts for approximately 10% of cervical carcinomas. The aims of the present study were to evaluate the prevalence, physical status, and viral load of HPV 16 and 18 in adenosquamous carcinoma. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue samples from 20 cases of histologically diagnosed adenosquamous carcinoma were examined. The squamous and glandular components were separately microdissected and analyzed for their HPV DNA subtype, viral load, and physical status using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The percentages of HPV 16- and 18-positive cases among all the HPV-positive cases were 36.8% (7/19) and 57.9% (11/19) in the squamous epithelial elements and 33.3% (6/18) and 61.1% (11/18) in the glandular elements, respectively. PCR analysis with E2 primers revealed that seven of eleven (63.6%) HPV 18-positive cases had the pure integrated form in both elements. The mean HPV 16 DNA copy numbers/cell was 7.22 in the squamous elements and 1.33 in the glandular elements (p=0.04) while the corresponding mean HPV 18 DNA copy numbers/cell was 1.50 and 0.89, respectively. The prevalence of HPV 18 in adenosquamous carcinoma was high and many HPV 18-positive cases were the pure integrated form resulting in very low copy numbers/cell. It is possible that more aggressive transformation with early integration of HPV 18 results in cases with greater chromosomal instabilities, higher growth rates, and rapid progression.

Abstract
A phase II, double-blind, controlled randomized multicenter study with human papillomavirus (HPV) 16/18 AS04 (3-O-desacyl-4'-monophosphoryl lipid A and aluminum hydroxide)-adjuvanted vaccine is ongoing in Japanese women aged 20 to 25 years. An interim analysis was performed at month 7 (1 month after the third dose of vaccine) to determine reactogenicity, safety, and immunogenicity of the vaccine and to evaluate the baseline HPV-16/18 seropositivity and DNA status of women. In the HPV-16/18 group (according-to-protocol cohort for immunogenicity analysis), 100% seroconversion was observed against HPV-16 and HPV-18 at month 6 (5 months after the second dose) and at month 7. At month 7, anti-HPV-16 geometric mean titer (GMT) was 7441.0 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay units/mL and anti-HPV-18 GMT was 3805.4 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay units/mL, which is, respectively, 250- and 168-fold higher than GMTs observed after natural infection with HPV-16 or HPV-18. In the total vaccinated cohort, the seropositivity rates against HPV-16 and HPV-18 at study entry were 17.3% and 15.8%, respectively. At the same time point, HPV-16 and HPV-18 DNA was detected in 6.5% and 4.0% of the women, respectively. The immunogenicity of the HPV-16/18 vaccine and the HPV prevalence before vaccination in Japanese women are in line with what was observed in other populations. Injection site symptoms and some general symptoms were reported more frequently in the HPV-16/18 group than in the hepatitis A vaccine group but had no impact on compliance with completion of the vaccination course. Overall, the HPV-16/18 vaccine had a good safety profile, was well tolerated, and is highly immunogenic in the study population of Japanese women.

Abstract
Asia Oceania includes countries from both the Asia Pacific region and Australasia, which cover very diverse geographical areas and populations as well as bearing 52% of the cervical cancer burden in the world. Human papillomavirus (HPV) genotype distribution in women with normal cytology varies between countries in this region, as well as with the distribution typically observed in worldwide estimates or in Western countries. HPV-16 remains the predominant oncogenic type for high-grade cervical dysplasia and cervical cancer across the region, and HPV-18 is generally among the five most common types. HPV-58 is commonly found in cervical cancer as well as in women with normal cytology, and HPV-31, 33 and 35 are relatively less frequent in these regions compared to the West. While screening programmes have been proposed and implemented in several populations, successful programmes are rather limited and the majority of countries still have no or minimal screening services. Prophylactic HPV vaccination will only be feasible when it becomes affordable, thus the current priority and the short-term goal for cervical cancer control is to identify feasible and effective screening measures, and to find the most effective way to combine vaccination with sustainable screening programmes. This Regional Report has carefully described the disease burden of HPV and cervical cancer and the current situations in cervical cancer prevention for many countries in the Asia Oceania region. These data identify the many challenges and opportunities to be considered for policy decisions for cervical cancer control. Furthermore, this report presents the results of advanced decision analytic models calibrated to countries in the region that provide early insight into what strategies are most promising and those likely to be cost-effective and affordable. It thus provides a synthesis of the available evidence-based scientific information, in the context of a significant and systematic international review, that is likely to be useful to governments and public health providers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To adapt the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Assessment (QUADAS) to the particular methodological challenges posed by research on '-omics'-based diagnostic tests. DESIGN AND METHODS We generated new guidelines by appraising the suitability of each criterion from QUADAS to '-omics'-based diagnostic research, and by adding new items that addressed specific sources of error. In addition, we defined four phases in the evaluation of a diagnostic test. RESULTS Twelve of the 14 criteria from QUADAS were retained in the new tool. The items relating to selection criteria and the description of the test were reformulated, and the criteria about external validation and the availability of clinical data were applied only in studies in the last research phase. Four new items were incorporated to QUADOMICS related to pre-analytical conditions and methods to avoid overfitting. CONCLUSIONS QUADOMICS is an adaptation of QUADAS to the special nature of '-omics'-based diagnostic research. The tool adds new items that assess quality issues specific to this research, and may enhance the application of '-omics'-based discoveries to clinical \and public health practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Papanicolaou (Pap) smear test is implemented to detect cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) in Taiwan. However, the utility of that has limitations. High-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) is an important risk factor in development of cervical cancer. In this study, we estimate the utility of HR-HPV testing in the screening of CIN. METHODS Firstly, 726 subjects were recruited and willing to prove cervical exfoliated epithelial cells for Pap smear screening and HR-HPV DNA testing. Subsequently, 205 of the eligible subjects with greater than or equal to CIN1 of Pap smear results were asked to perform histologic diagnosis that served as a gold standard for the estimation of the effects of both Pap smear and HR-HPV testing. RESULTS The histology is significantly associated with HR-HPV infection, as well as significantly highly correlated with the individuals who have both Pap smear greater than or equal to CIN1 and positive HR-HPV infection but not significantly correlated with the individuals who only have Pap smear greater than or equal to CIN1 but without HR-HPV infection. CONCLUSIONS Combinative surveillance of HR-HPV infection and Pap smear is a useful tool to detect and monitor precancerous lesions in the screening program. HR-HPV testing is a notable accessory screening program for detection of CIN in Taiwanese women.
