A meta‐analysis of human papillomavirus prevalence and types among Iranian women with normal cervical cytology, premalignant lesions, and cervical cancer

Abstract: In this study, all data from Iran on human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence and types among women with normal cervical cytology, premalignant lesions, and cervical cancer were obtained and pooled. The overall HPV prevalence was found to be 9% in women with a normal cervix, 55% in atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance or atypia cases, 58% and 69% in women with low and high grade squamous intraepithelial lesions, respectively, and 81% among women with invasive cervical cancer. In all of the studied… Show more

“…Persistent HR-HPV infection, the most common of which are HPV16 and HPV18, is the leading cause of cervical precancerous lesions and cervical cancer [20]. HPV-E6 and E7 proteins induce cellular immune escape, disrupt the normal cell cycle, and cause abnormal cell reproduction and tendency for malignant transformation.…”

“…Several studies have shown that the incidence of HR-HPV genotypes is related to the severity of abnormal lesions in cytology [ 22 , 23 ]. Recently, Salavatiha et al, in a meta-analysis of HPV prevalence among Iranian women, revealed that the overall HPV incidence was 9% in females with a healthy cervix and 55% in ASCUS [ 24 ]. Therefore, it is valuable to consider the diagnostic methods, percussion, and identification of individuals with this disease to prevent cervical cancer.…”

“…The global prevalence estimated at 11.7% and HPV will infect 80% of women in their lifetime [1,2]. The HPV prevalence is estimated to be 9.3% among women in the East Mediterranean region (EMR) [3], while its prevalence was 9 % in Iranian females [4]. Persistent HPV infection with high-risk types such as HPV type 6, 11, 16, and 18 cause almost all cases of cervical cancer, genital wart, and some anal, vaginal, penile, and oropharyngeal cancers [5].…”
