HPV vaccine uptake among overweight and obese US adolescents: An analysis of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2009–2014

Abstract: Background Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine uptake in the US is suboptimal; identifying risk factors associated with low vaccine uptake is critical to increase vaccination coverage. Some evidence suggests body mass index (BMI) is associated with low HPV vaccine uptake and increased risk of HPV infection in adults. BMI may therefore be an important factor in targeting HPV vaccine to US adolescents. Methods We investigated the relationship between BMI categories (underweight, normal weight, overweight and ob… Show more

“…One large study identified disrespectful treatment, embarrassment with being weighed, negative attitudes of providers, unsolicited weight loss advice, and poorly fit equipment and facilities as reasons why women with obesity were more likely to delay screening for breast and cervical cancer (Amy, Aalborg, Lyons, & Keranen, 2006). Previous studies have noted mixed findings when assessing disparities by body weight in receipt of HPV, pneumococcus, or influenza vaccinations, but no HPV vaccination studies have included adolescent and adult women in a large, nationally representative sample or controlled for known confounders such as differences in healthcare utilization (Harper et al, 2014; Harris, Moniz, Iott, Power, & Griggs, 2016; Sundaram, Mason, & Basta, 2016).…”

“…Based on the factors associated with HPV-infection that are reported in the previous study [32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43], we use these factors as the covariates. So these covariates involved in this analysis consist of vitamin K intake data, sociodemographic data, experimental data, questionnaire data, and data from a physical examination.…”
