Objectives: We aimed to estimate the genotype distribution of persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infection in females worldwide, and provided a scientific basis for the prevention strategies of cervical cancer (CC) and the development of HPV vaccines.

Methods: Both English and Chinese databases were researched from the inception to July 2023. The pooled persistent HPV infection prevalence was calculated using a random effects model. The subgroup analysis was performed to explore the heterogeneity. Publication bias was evaluated using funnel plot, Egger's and Begg's test.

Results: Twenty-eight studies with 27,335 participants were included. The pooled prevalence of persistent HPV infection was 29.37% (95% CI [24.05%∼35.31%]), and the genotypes with the persistent infection prevalence were HPV16 (35.01%), HPV52 (28.19%), HPV58 (27.06%), HPV18 (25.99%), HPV33 (24.37%), HPV31 (23.35%), HPV59 (21.87%), HPV39 (19.54%), HPV68 (16.61%) and HPV45 (15.05%). The prevalence of multiple and single HPV persistent infection were 48.66% and 36.71%, respectively; the prevalence of persistent HPV infection in different age groups (<30, 30∼39, 40∼49, >50) were 29.83%, 28.39%, 22.24% and 30.22%, respectively. The follow-up time was significantly associated with heterogeneity by subgroup analysis ( < 0.05), and the prevalence of persistent infection decreased with longer follow-up time.

Conclusions: Multiple infections were more likely to occur persistent HPV infection than single infection. In addition to HPV vaccination, we should emphasize the follow-up management for women under 30 and over 50 years old, those with high-risk HPV infection (HPV59, 39, 68) and multiple infections.

Background: Understanding the HPV genotype distribution in invasive cervical cancer (ICC) is essential for vaccine optimization. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of HPV genotypes in ICC tissues from patients in western China, with the aim of informing regional vaccine policy and prevention strategies.

Methods: DNA was extracted from 1,908 paraffin-embedded ICC samples, and 23 HPV genotypes were detected via PCR and reverse dot hybridization gene chip assays.

Objectives: As one type of vaccine policy, the effectiveness and spillover effects of the US CDC vaccine recommendations are inadequately evaluated. This study aims to fully evaluate its impacts on male adults, in addition to children, using better data.

Design: A before-after study design to examine the CDC's 2011 HPV vaccine recommendation for men aged 11-21.

Evidence increasingly indicates that HPV infection plays a pivotal role in the initiation and progression of bladder cancer (BC). Yet, determining the predictive value of HPV-associated genes in BC remains challenging. We identified differentially expressed HPV-associated genes of BC patients from the TCGA and GEO databases.

Introduction: Immunocompromised persons have high risk of persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and HPV-related diseases, and lower immune response to vaccines. This study evaluated the immunogenicity and safety of administering a fourth dose of quadrivalent (4v)HPV vaccine in immunosuppressed women who did not seroconvert after three doses.

Methods: An open-label, not-controlled trial included immunosuppressed women (solid organ transplant patients and women receiving treatment for SLE) who did not seroconvert to at least one of the four HPV vaccine types after three 4vHPV vaccine doses.

Background/aim: The five members of the mammalian muscarinic acetylcholine receptor family are encoded by the cholinergic receptor, muscarinic, 1-5 (CHRM1-5) genes. CHRM genes are incriminated in formation of various cancer types, but their roles in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) are improperly understood. Aberrant epigenetic modifications of specific tumor-suppressor genes and oncogenes are known to promote cancer development.
