Human papillomavirus genotype distribution and its correlation with intraepithelial neoplasia, vaccination, and ethnicity
HPV non-16/18 genotypes are more prevalent than HPV 16/18, even in women with high-grade lesions with a greater shift towards non-16/18 genotypes in non-white and in vaccinated women. The study suggests the need for extended HPV genotyping and vaccines targeting a broader range of HPV types to include HPV non-16/18 to improve prevention, particularly in certain ethnic groups.
