Objective: Persistent infection with human papillomavirus is the prerequisite for the development of cervical precancerous and cancerous lesions. The aim of this study was to determine the time-to-viral clearance in a population of human papillomavirus–infected Cameroonian women and to examine the possible predictors of viral persistence. Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study based on a population of human papillomavirus–positive women having previously been recruited in a self-human papillomavirus-based cervical cancer screening campaign, who were invited for a control visit at 6 and 12 months. We determined human papillomavirus clearance using self-sampling (Self-HPV) and physician-sampling (Dr-HPV), which were analyzed with a point-of-care assay (GeneXpert® IV; Cepheid, Sunnyvale, CA, USA). Logistic regression was performed to assess the relationship between sociodemographic and clinical characteristics with HPV clearance according to the two sampling techniques. Results: A total of 187 participants were included in the study. At the 12 months follow-up, 79.5% (n = 104) and 65.3% (n = 86) had cleared their human papillomavirus infection according to Dr-HPV and self-HPV, respectively (p = 0.001). Only parity (>5 children) was statistically associated with viral persistence (p = 0.033). According to Dr-HPV, clearance of women treated with thermoablation at 12 months was of 84.1% versus 70.2% for non-treated women (p = 0.075). Conclusion: The human papillomavirus clearing rates found in our study are close to those found in other studies worldwide. Parity was significantly associated with human papillomavirus persistence. Larger, prospective studies are needed to confirm our results.

Introduction. The aim of the study was to confirm the association between human papillomavirus infection and atypical cervical squamous cells. Material and Methods. This cross-sectional study, conducted in the period from January 2016 to June 2017, included 128 sexually active women, aged 20 to 59 years with squamous cell abnormalities of the cervical cytology, who came to their annual gynecological exam at the University Clinic of Gynecology and Obstetrics in Skopje. All patients underwent human papillomavirus testing and colposcopic cervical biopsy with endocervical curettage for histopathological analysis. Results. Data analysis showed an increase in the human papillomavirus infection alongside with cytological (p = 0.029296) and histopathological (p = 0.029443) increasing grades of cervical lesions. It showed an association between the oncogenic potential of the virus and the cytological (p = 0.000086) and histopathological (p = 0.00001) grades of cervical lesions. A human papillomavirus infection was detected in 75.00% of the examined women. The relationship between the prevalence of high-risk and low-risk human papillomavirus genotypes was 56.25%: 10.94%. Mixed human papillomavirus infection was detected in 32.03% of all patients, in 42.71% of human papillomavirus positive patients. The most common human papillomavirus genotypes, in descending order, were human papillomavirus-16 (43.75%), human papillomavirus-31 (15.62%), human papillomavirus-18 10.4%), human papillomavirus-45 (9.37%), human papillomavirus-33 (7.29%), etc. Conclusion. This study has confirmed an association between human papillomavirus infection and squamous cell abnormalities of the uterine cervix. Young women under 30 years of age were the most affected group.
