Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the link between HIV and cervical cancer, focusing on HPV prevalence and genotype distribution among HIV-infected women in the French Antilles and Guiana.
- Researchers analyzed 439 women and found a 50.1% overall HPV prevalence, with 42% specifically for high-risk HPV types; notable genotypes included HPV 16 and HPV 52.
- Factors like alcohol consumption were linked to higher HPV prevalence, while effective antiretroviral therapy (ART) was associated with lower risks; the findings stress the importance of ART adherence and cervical health screenings.
