Abstract:

Objective:To study the human papilloma virus (HPV) infection conditions in patients from gynecology outpatient department and its correlation with cervical columnar ectopy, to provide clinical evidence for prevention and treatment of HPV infection.Methods: Selected 1 130 patients who accepted cervical HPV screening in the gynecology outpatient department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin University of TCM from May 2018 to December 2019 as the research subjects, age ranged from 21 to 65 years old, and the main reasons for visiting included reproductive endocrine diseases, abnormal vaginal secretions, previous HPV infection, gynecological tumors, endometriosis and gynecological physical examination, recorded the appearance of cervix simultaneously, detected HPV using fluorescent polymerase chain reaction technology, and analyzed the conditions of HPV infection and its correlation with ages, reasons for medical visits and cervical appearance.Results: The overall HPV infection rate was 40.00% (452/1 130). The top five of the most common types of HPV infection were 16, 58, 52, 51 and 18 in order. The HPV infection rate was the highest in the 60-65 years old group, accounting for 74.07%. The HPV infection rate was the highest in patients with abnormal vaginal discharge (54.57%), followed by patients with previous HPV infection (50.77%). There was no statistical difference (P>0.05) between cervical columnar ectopy group and smoothy cervix group including total HPV infection rate (39.94% vs. 40.08%), high-risk HPV(HR-HPV) infection rate (33.75% vs. 34.09%), low-risk HPV infection rate (4.33% vs. 3.93%), possible HR-HPV infection rate (1.86% vs. 2.07%), single subtype HPV infection rate (28.95% vs. 28.10%) and multiple HPV infection rate (10.99% vs. 11.98%).Conclusions: There is no relationship between HPV infection and cervical columnar ectopy. We should strengthen the HPV screening for patients with advanced age, abnormal vaginal secretions, and previous HPV infection in clinical work, detect persistent HPV infection in time, and make targeted interventions to effectively prevent cervical cancer and precancerous lesion.
