Prevailing of HPV-16 and 52 genotype in 2022-2023 in Sanandaj, Iran. Virol J 2024; 21:106. [PMID: 38715018 PMCID: PMC11077814 DOI: 10.1186/s12985-024-02373-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Human papillomavirus (HPV) presents a potential threat to the onset of carcinogenesis in the cervix, anogenital regions, and oropharynx. HPV encompasses over 200 types, with at least 12 having the potential to cause cancer, impacting the majority of sexually active individuals. In this current research, we explore the occurrence and spread of HPV genotypes. MATERIAL AND METHODS During this cross-sectional study conducted in Sanandaj, Iran from Feb 2022 to Aug 2023, diverse samples including oral, vaginal, and genital were collected from individuals referred to private laboratories in Sanandaj, Iran. After sample collection and DNA extraction (FAVORGEN, Taiwan), they were subjected to PCR and genotyping (MehrViru, Iran). The subsequent statistical analysis unveiled infection rates across different demographics and age groups. STATA (version 17) were used for statistical analysis. We examined infection rates across demographics using t-tests and Odds Ratio. RESULTS Overall, 26% (249) out of 950 cases tested positive for HPV, with 69% of these classified as high-risk. Among the examined population, 98% (933) were female, and 2% (17) were male. Females aged 31-40 exhibited the highest percentage of HPV prevalence (115/460) in the study with the majority of positive cases belonging to HR genotypes. The overall most frequent genotypes identified were 6, 16, 52, 53, 51, 58, and 56. HPV-16 exhibited the highest frequency among HR genotypes, accounting for 42 (17%) occurrences, followed by HPV-52 with a frequency of 32 (13%). CONCLUSION Our findings emphasize the significant prevalence of HPV among females, particularly in the 21-30 age group. The identification of high-risk genotypes, underscores the importance of targeted interventions for specific age cohorts. The age-stratified analysis highlights a consistent predominance of high-risk HPV across age groups, indicating the need for age-specific preventive measures. These results contribute valuable information for designing effective screening and vaccination strategies, to alleviate the impact of diseases associated with HPV.

[PMID: 38132198 PMCID: PMC10743259 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13243614] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2023] [Revised: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Cervical cancer (CC) is the most prevalent gynecological malignancy and a leading cause of death among women. It is primarily caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, with 99.7% of cases showing high-risk HPV genotypes. This study sheds light on HPV dynamics as well as the discrepancies of different CC screening modalities results while highlighting factors that may have contributed to such a scenario. Moreover, we underscore the importance of the non-viral etiology of CC as well. We examined the current trends of HPV infection and its effects on cervical health in women treated at a tertiary care center in Belgrade, Serbia. Patients with abnormal colposcopy findings like dysplasia and re-epithelization were more likely to test negative for HPV (p < 0.001). Interestingly, women with a positive Pap smear tested HPV negative significantly more often (p = 0.041). Finally, HPV-positive individuals were more likely to have CIN I and II histologies (p < 0.001), while CIN III occurred equally in women with and without the virus. It may be inferred that inconsistencies in detecting HPV and the presence of cervical lesions may eventually result in adjustments to screening guidelines, as is crucial to adopt a meticulous approach to promote periodical CC screening, as initial samples may test negative for HPV.

Abstract
Background Human papillomavirus (HPV) can cause various gynecological diseases, create a long-term inflammatory immune microenvironment, and induce the occurrence of cervical tumors. However, the prevalence of HPV is species-specific in different eras or in different countries and regions. This paper aimed to investigate the characteristics of HPV infection in the Xuhui District, Shanghai City, China. Methods We collected HPV data from 6,760 female testers, focusing on the younger population for data analysis. We focused more on the HPV subtypes to which young women were susceptible, performed t-Distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (TSNE) analysis to screen for characteristic subtypes, and compared the prevalent subtypes lacking effective vaccine protection. Results HPV infection exhibited a trend of affecting a younger population, and eight subtypes were more likely to occur in young people. HPV43, 51, 53, and 59 showed a higher incidence and lacked vaccine protection. We performed TSNE dimensionality reduction analysis to organize the HPV data. The results indicated that HPV16, 18, and 51 are characteristic subtypes in the younger population. The Thinprep cytologic test (TCT) also revealed that the infection with HPV43, 51, 53, and 59 also triggers significant pathological phenotypes. Conclusions HPV51 is a subtype that occurs more frequently in young women, can induce a variety of significant pathological features, and lacks effective vaccine protection. This study inspires us to take measures to deal with HPV rejuvenation and conduct research on vaccines for specific HPV subtypes.

Type distribution of human papillomaviruses in ThinPrep cytology samples and HPV16/18 E6 gene variations in FFPE cervical cancer specimens in Fars province, Iran. Cancer Cell Int 2023; 23:166. [PMID: 37568237 PMCID: PMC10422805 DOI: 10.1186/s12935-023-03011-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/13/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND There exists strong evidence that human papillomavirus (HPV) is associated with cervical cancer (CC). HPV E6 is a major oncogene whose sequence variations may be associated with the development of CC. There is not sufficient data on the distribution of HPV types in ThinPrep cytology specimens and HPV 16/18 E6 gene variations among CC patients in the southwest of Iran. This study was conducted to contribute to HPV screening and vaccination in Iran. METHODS A total of 648 women screened for cervicitis, intraepithelial neoplasia or CC were included in the study. All participants underwent ThinPrep cytology testing, single-step HPV DNA detection and allele-specific reverse hybridization assays. Moreover, a total of 96 specimens previously tested positive for single infection with HPV16 or 18 were included for variant analysis. HPV16/18 lineages and sublineages were determined by PCR assays followed by sequencing the E6 gene and the construction of neighbor-joining phylogenetic trees. RESULTS Overall, HPV DNA was detected in 62.19% of all the screened subjects. The detection rates of HPV DNA among individuals with normal, ASC-US, ASC-H, LSIL, and HSIL cervical cytology were 48.9%, 93.6%, 100%, 100%, and 100%, respectively. Low-risk HPVs were detected more frequently (46.9%) than high-risk (38.9%) and possible high-risk types (11.1%). Of 403 HPV-positive subjects, 172 (42.7%) had single HPV infections while the remaining 231 (57.3%) were infected with multiple types of HPV. Our results indicated a remarkable growth of high-risk HPV66 and 68 and low-risk HPV81 which have rarely been reported in Iran and HPV90 and 87 that are reported for the first time in the country. In addition, 3 lineages (A, D, and C) and 6 sublineages (A1, A2, A4, C1, D1, and D2) of HPV16, and one lineage and 4 sublineages (A1, A3, A4, and A5) of HPV18 were identified. The studied HPV16 and 18 variants mainly belonged to the D1 and A4 sublineages, respectively. CONCLUSION The present study suggests that the prevalence of HPV infection in women of all age groups with or without premalignant lesions in the southwestern Iran is high and the predominant HPV types in the southwest of Iran may differ from those detected in other parts of the country. This study also highlights the necessity of not only initiating HPV vaccination for the general population but also developing new vaccines that confer immunity against the prevalent HPV types in the area and national cervical screening programs using a combination of thinPrep cytology test and HPV detection assays in order to improve the accuracy of the screening.

Abstract
Background and Objectives Breast cancer is currently the most commonly diagnosed neoplasm in women worldwide. There is evidence that human papillomavirus (HPV) infection may play a key role in breast cancer aggressiveness, but results are conflicting across studies. The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of the HPV viral genome in benign and malignant breast tissue samples and its clinicopathological characteristics of cancer. Materials and Methods In this case-control study, 100 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) of breast cancer and 100 blocks of non-cancerous breast tissue were selected as a control group from the pathology department of Imam Khomeini Hospital in Ahvaz from 2020-2022. The presence of HPV was detected using nested PCR including MY09/11 primers and sequencing were performed for virus genotyping. Results The present study enrolled 100 subjects each in two cancer and control groups with a mean age of 52.81±13.23 and 35.77±11.65, respectively. The risk of cancer in HPV-infected patients is almost 5 times higher than in HPV-negative individuals, it is not statistically significant (OR =4.99, 95% CI 0.35 to 72.15, p=0.238). The prevalence of HPV in the cancer and control groups was 7% and 1%, respectively and HPVs detected in two groups were of the HPV 16 genotype. Although the chance of ER and PR expression, lymphvascular involvement, perineural invasion, and higher tumor grade was higher in HPV-positive subjects than in HPV-negative subjects, this was not statistically significant (OR>1, p>0.05). Conclusion Based on studies reporting the existence of sequences of different high-risk HPV types (oncogenes) in breast cancer tissues, this study confirmed the hypothesis of a possible infectious cause in the development of breast cancer. So far, however, the results have been controversial and inconclusive. Further studies with large sample sizes are needed to demonstrate the link between HPV and breast cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women, and human papillomavirus (HPV) is the leading cause of cervical cancer. Cervical cancer screening and HPV vaccination are important in the incidence of cervical cancer. METHODS This study was performed on Liquid Base Cytology (LBC) samples of 1214 women in Mashhad who were referred for cervical cancer screening in 2015-2020. Samples were examined by Single-Step PCR and Reverse Line Blot for HPV genotyping. RESULTS 386 women (31.8%) were HPV PCR positive. HPV genotyping of 277 samples showed that HPV 31 (3%), 16 (2.5%), 51 (2.2%), 18 (2%), and 66 (1.8%) were the most prevalent high-risk HPV (hrHPV) genotypes. Among low-risk HPV (lrHPV) genotypes, HPV 6 (9.2%), 53 (4.7%), and 42 (2.8%) were the most common genotypes. The range of multiple infections varied between two to eight genotypes and the prevalence of multiple HPV infections (12.4%) was higher than single infections (10.4%). For women with single HPV infections, HPV 31 and 66 were equally the most common hrHPV genotypes, followed by HPV 16 and 39. In women with multiple HPV infections, HPV 31 was the most common hrHPV genotype, followed by HPV 51 and 16. For both the single and multiple HPV infections, HPV 6 was the most common lrHPV genotype, followed by HPV 53 and 42. CONCLUSION In conclusion, due to the high prevalence of HPV single and multiple infections, the need for governmentally supported HPV vaccination and through cervical cancer screening should be emphasized to prevent cervical cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND HPV-31, -33, and -58, along with HPV-45 and -52, account for almost 11% of HPV-associated cancers. Our previous studies showed that after HPV-16 and -51, HPV-58 was common and HPV-31 was as frequent as HPV-18 among Iranian women with normal cytology. Hence, in this study, we aimed to investigate the intra-type variations in L1 genes of HPV-58, -31, and -33 to find the predominant lineages circulating in women with normal cytology. METHODS Complete coding sequencing of the L1 gene was amplified and nucleotide and amino acid sequences were compared to those of the references. The selective pressure on L1 protein and whether the variations of the L1 genes embed in L1 loops, or N-glycosylated sites were also investigated. RESULTS B1, A, and A1 (sub)lineages were common in the HPV-58, -33, and -31 samples, respectively. Ninety nucleotide mutations were observed. Twenty nine nucleotide changes corresponded to nonsynonymous substitutions in which seventeen mutations were located in L1 loops. Only one codon position in HPV-58 sequences was found as the positive selection. No difference was observed in N-glycosylation sites between reference and understudied amino acid sequences. CONCLUSION In the current study, we reported, for the first time, the (sub) lineages, amino acid, and genetic diversity in the L1 gene of circulating HPV-58, -33, and -31, in women with normal cytology, in Iran. Such studies can not only have epidemiological values, but also aid to set vaccination programs.

Abstract
Background: The genotypic distribution of human papillomavirus (HPV) needs to be determined with detail as it is an important issue when it comes to public health and preparing vaccines since the HPV type may be different in various areas. Objectives: This study aimed at reporting the frequency of HPV types among women in Sari in the north of Iran. Methods: From 2018 October to 2019 April, 50 sterile swabs of vaginal and cervical discharge of women with genital warts, which were performed by a gynecologist, were examined to determine the prevalence of HPV genotyping by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results: From 50 vaginal swab samples of patients with genital warts, the frequency distribution of types of HPV in women with genital warts included 5 patients (10.0%) with 2 high-risk serotypes as simultaneous serotypes 4% (16, 18), 4% (18, 35), 2% (66, 67), 1 patient (2%) HPV 33, 1 patient (2%) HPV 34, 1 patient (2%) 1 patient (2%) HPV 35, 2 patients (4%) HPV 66, 1 patient (2%) HPV 67, and 1 patient (2%) HPV 68. Conclusions: Since HPV genotype varies in diverse areas, these results can be used for screening, management, and vaccination of the target population against the common types of virus in Sari.

Abstract
Background Cervical cancer (CC) is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer and the fourth leading cause of cancer death in females worldwide, associated with the incidence of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. The CC incidence is low in Iran, ranking 11th among cancers. This study aimed to estimate the survival rate of CC and the reasons for its low survival rate based on the data retrieved from the Iranian National Cancer Registry System. Methods In this retrospective cohort study, data for patients diagnosed with CC from 2008 to 2014 were collected and analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis based on epidemiological and clinical factors. Results A total of 5,304 women were diagnosed from March 10, 2008 to March 9, 2014 and 2,423 patients were followed. The mean age of the cases was 51.91 years, and 65.91% were alive. The 5- and 10-year survival rates were 58% and 50%, respectively, with no difference between younger cases with SCC or AC but better survival rates for older patients with SCC. Conclusions As a preventable disease, CC is related to biological factors and geographical and sociodemographic indices. Geographical, cultural, and religious behaviors affect the CC incidence and survival. In Iran, the 5-year survival rate ranges from 34% to 70% among different geographic regions. Hence, effective screening based on cultural and sociodemographic issues is recommended.

Abstract
The human papillomavirus (HPV), commonly documented as the cause of warts, has gained much interest recently due to its possible links to several types of cancer. HPV infection is discussed in this review from multiple angles, including its virology, epidemiology, etiology, immunology, clinical symptoms, and treatment. Recent breakthroughs in molecular biology have led to the development of new methods for detecting and treating HPV in tissue. There is no cure for HPV, and although vaccines are available to prevent infection with the most common HPV viruses, their utilization is limited. Destruction and excision are the primary treatment modalities. This review sheds light on the epidemiology, molecular pathogenesis, the association of several other pathogens with HPV, the latest treatment strategies available to treat the same, and an overview of the progress made and the obstacles still to be overcome in the fight against HPV infection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a major cause of cervical cancer worldwide. Knowledge of the geographical distribution and epidemiology of the most common HPV genotypes is a crucial step in developing prevention strategies. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate HPV genotype distribution among HPV-positive women and men in Tehran, Iran. STUDY DESIGN A case series study. METHODS The study was performed on 219 HPV-positive individuals (160 females and 59 males) from Tehran, Iran. Samples were obtained from the cervix and vagina of female subjects and the genital warts of male subjects. DNA was extracted from samples, and a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-reverse dot blot genotyping chip was used to examine HPV genotypes. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue samples of 51 patients from the study population were also included in this study. RESULTS The proportion of high-risk (HR)-HPV was 67.12%. The most common HR-HPV types were HR-HPV16 (17.4%), HR-HPV68 (11.4%), and HR-HPV51 (7.8%). The most common low-risk (LR)-HPV types included LR-HPV6 (31.1%), LR-HPV81 (11.9%), and LR-HPV62 (11.4%). The highest prevalence of HPV was in the age group of > 30 years (42.9%). Co-infection with multiple HR-HPV types was observed in 22.4% of specimens. Moreover, HR-HPV was found in 50% of women with normal cytology, 100% with a low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion, and 84.61% with atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance. CONCLUSION The results indicated the remarkable growth of HR-HPV68, which has rarely been reported in Iran. The findings add knowledge to HPV epidemiological investigation and emphasize the need for introducing educational programs in high schools and appropriate vaccination in Iran.

Abstract
Objectives Human papillomavirus is one of the most important causes of cervical cancer. Participating in an HPV test and receiving an HPV diagnosis can create questions about the needs and preferences. The present systematic review was conducted to determine the reproductive health needs of women with HPV. Methods We searched PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar and Magiran, SID and Iranmedex. Without language restrictions and time constraints. We also searched the grey literature and carried out forward/backward citation searches. Results In the first, 1056 articles were retrieved, and, after removing them, 13 articles published were entered. The studies were qualitative (N = 9), quantitative (N = 3), and one was unclear. Most qualitative studies collected data using individual interviews (N = 7), two qualitative studies, narratives of HPV patients from a website of patient experiences and questions. Women wanted further information on different HPV viral types, transmission, implications for sexual partners, prevalence, latency and regression of HPV, their management options and the implications of infection for cancer risk and fertility. Women’s experience of searching the Internet for further information about HPV was reported as difficult, anxiety provoking and contributing to the stigma of the infection because information was often located in the context of other sexually transmitted infections, with multiple sexual partners highlighted as a risk factor for infection. Conclusion Surveys showed that the majority of women had unanswered questions about their HPV test results. The information that women thought was helpful in interpreting their test results included having a high-risk type of HPV, and cancer survival statistics for the virus. Women also needed information about sexual transmission, how HPV tested positive in a long-term relationship, and the potential consequences for their partners and the risk of re-infection. Younger women had questions about whether HPV could affect fertility.

Abstract
Introduction and importance Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors of skin cancer. Most of these cancers occur on the head and neck. CSCC makes up the seventh most common type of cancer worldwide. The incidence of human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated head and neck squamous cell carcinoma became more prevalent, and HPV infection is mainly linked to head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Case presentation A 57-year-old non-smoking man was admitted to Omid Hospital in Urmia, West Azerbaijan, Iran; there were extensive bleeding masses on his head and neck due to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and he has been diagnosed with HPV infection so accidentally. The operation room had prepared for excisional treatment and the masses had been removed as much as possible. Patient was referred to the wound care team to receive advanced treatment interventions. Clinical discussion Incidence of HPV-associated HNSCC has been more noticeable recently, and HPV infection alone can be a distinct risk factor for metastatic HNSCC. Most patients with HPV positive have peripheral lymph node involvement. Radiation therapy and surgery can offer equally good long-term results in small initial head and neck tumors. Traditionally, advanced head and neck tumors managed surgically more advantageous. Conclusion This case illustrates that history of HPV positive can be associated with a more severe and resistant type of HNSCC with poor treatment outcomes. Patients with HPV should be monitored regularly for HNSCC, and treatment should be started as soon as possible for a better result. Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors of skin cancer. Approximately 80% of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) occur on the head and neck. The human papillomavirus (HPV) is a third risk factor for head and neck carcinogenesis. Advanced head and neck tumors are managed surgically is more advantageous.

Abstract
Background Human papilloma virus (HPV) causes the most common sexually-transmitted infection especially among sexually-active individuals. The aim of study was to characterize the molecular characterization of HPV genotypes between 5176 female and male patients. Methods HPV DNA was extracted from genital swabs of the study participants and amplified by Real Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Genotyping was performed for 2525 cases using REALQUALITY RQ-Multi HPV Detection Kit for the identification of 14 high risk (HR) and 2 low risk (LR) HPV genotypes. Demographic figures were analyzed in correlation with virological data statistically. Results Out of 5176 cases from 7 laboratories, 2727 (53%) were positive for HPV, of which. 2372(87%) women and 355 (13%) men were HPV positive. However, in an intra-gender analysis, positive rate was higher in men (355/637, 55.7%) than in women (2372/4539, 52%; P value 0.007). HPV positive patients were younger than negative individuals. Positive rate was higher among age categories 20–40. Genotyping was performed for 2525 cases. Out of 1219 (48%) patients who contained single genotypes, 566 (22%) and 653 (26%) harboured HR and LR genotypes, respectively. In females and males, 1189 (54%) and 117 (37%) contained multiple genotypes. No substantial associations were found between different age categories and HR/LR and multiple genotypes distribution. Conclusion The prevalence of HPV infection in both genders was high. However, men had a higher rate of infection. These observations highlighted the necessity for a plan for targeted education to younger population in the society as well as application of infection control measures against HPV infection, especially in terms of general population mass HPV vaccination.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is one of the major health concerns of women in developing countries. This study gives an insight into the prevalence and genotype distribution of HPV infection and compares it with Pap smear results among Iranian women. METHODS In this study, 12,076 Iranian women underwent routine examination from November 2016 to November 2018 using HPV Direct Flow CHIP System for HPV DNA typing. Cytology methods were also undertaken for 5,138 samples. RESULTS Overall HPV prevalence was calculated at 38.68%. The most frequent HPV types were HPV 6, 16, 11, 62/81, 52, and 54, respectively; and, the most high-risk HPV types were HPV 16, 52, 18, 39, 31, and 51. These two groups represent about half of all HPV types detected-47% and 55%, respectively. Among individuals who underwent cytological tests, 135 individuals (2.63%) were cytologically positive. In this group, 81 individuals (60%) were HPV positive as well, 62 (76%) of whom were HR-HPV positive and among them, the most frequent type was HPV 16 (34%). CONCLUSION This study highlights the urgent need for public education and also early diagnosis using HPV screening tests to prevent cervical cancer.

Abstract
Human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) is one of the most important cause of developing cervical cancer. Therefore, effective epitope-based vaccine design for HPV-16 would be of major medical benefit. The aim of our study was to identify B- and T-cell epitopes of HPV-16 L1 protein. In this study, the HPV-16 L1 gene was isolated from HPV recovered from five vaginal swab samples using specific primers and finally sequenced. The ExPASy translate tool (http://web.expasy.org/translate/) was used to convert nucleotide sequence into amino acid sequence. Bioinformatic analysis was employed to predict suitable B- and T-cell epitopes and immunogenicity, allergenicity, and toxicity of predicted epitopes were then evaluated. Afterward, the selected T-cell epitopes were docked using Molegro Virtual Docker software. The two epitopes 207 AMDFTTLQA215 and 200 MVDTGFGAM208 have showed a very strong binding affinity to HLA-A0201 and HLA-B3501 molecules, respectively. Outcome of B-cell epitope prediction showed that epitope 475 KAKPKFTLGKRK ATPTTSSTSTTAKRKK502 contained overlapped epitope, which might be the epitope associated with the production of neutralizing antibody response. Based on this finding, the predicted B- and T-cell epitopes are promising targets for epitope-based vaccine development against HPV-16. Further in vivo and in vitro experiments are needed to confirm our findings.

Abstract
Background: Infection with an oncogenic type of human papillomavirus is a prerequisite for the development of precancerous cervical lesions and its subsequent progression to cervical cancer. With an alarming increase in the detection of other suspicious papillomavirus genotypes in both healthy and women with cervical lesions, there is a need for comprehensive data on cervical papillomavirus infection to address cervical cancer and other associated disease burden, especially in Sub-Sarahan Africa, where the bulk of the problem exists. The present study was conducted to develop comprehensive data on the prevalence and circulating genotypes of human papillomavirus in various risk categories in Nigeria. Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis of peer-reviewed publications on cervical papillomavirus infection were performed. Relevant data were extracted from eligible studies published in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, and Google Scholar, from inception to July 31, 2019. The random-effect model was used to estimate the pooled prevalence. We identified 327 potential studies and pooled data from 18, involving 5697 women aged 15-86 years. Results: The overall pooled prevalence of cervical papillomavirus infection was 42% (95%CI: 30-54%) in the general population and 37% (95%CI: 25-50%) among women living with HIV/AIDs, with the predominance of genotypes 16, 18, 31, 35, 52, 58 and 45. The highest prevalence was observed in teenagers and young adults and the second peak in women 50 years and above. Conclusion: The prevalence of cervical human papillomavirus infection is cumulatively high in Nigeria and HIV is a strong co-factor. We, therefore, strongly recommend the co-screening of human papillomavirus and cervical cancer and integration of the intervention strategy into the existing HIV-care guideline in Nigeria.
