| description | Background: There has been no population-based study on human papillomavirus (HPV) prevalence or its genotypes in
Bangladesh; a country eligible for GAVI funding for HPV vaccine.
Methods: We used baseline survey data of a prospective cohort study that was conducted in one urban and one rural area
of Bangladesh. A total of 997 urban and 905 rural married women, aged 13 to 64 years, were enrolled in the baseline during
July-December, 2011. Information was collected on socio-demographic characteristics and potential risk factors for HPV
infection followed by gynecological examination and collection of endocervical samples using the cervical cytobrush
(Digene cervical sampler). HPV DNA testing was done by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) using a consensus primer set.
Results: Prevalence of any HPV infection was 7.7% with no significant difference between urban and rural women. Most
common high-risk genotypes were HPV16, HPV66, HPV18, HPV45, HPV31 and HPV53. Urban women working as housemaids
or garment workers were at higher risk of any HPV infection (OR = 2.15, 95% CI: 1.13–4.11) compared to housewives. Rural
women whose husband lived overseas were almost two times more likely to have any HPV infection (OR = 1.93; 95% CI
1.05–3.55) compared to women whose husbands lived with them.
Conclusion: The prevalence of HPV infection among Bangladeshi women is similar to other regions of Asia. However, type-
specific patterns are different. The study findings will inform the formulation of HPV vaccination policies in Bangladesh,
monitoring the impact of vaccination programmes, and the identification of target populations for screening. |
