A Cohort Study Among HIV Infected Women:Exploring the Regulatory Mechanism of Gut and Vaginal Microbiota in HPV Infection and Cervical Lesion
A Cohort Study Among HIV Infected Women:Exploring the Regulatory Mechanism of Gut and Vaginal Microbiota in HPV Infection and Cervical Lesion
Women Living with HIV Infection (WLHIV)are intended to acquire HPV infection which usually contributes to variable cervical lesions. we hypothesize that vaginal microbiota imbalance may make WLHIV prone to HPV infection,thereafter results in severe cervical lesion.
Women Living with HIV Infection (WLHIV)are intended to acquire HPV infection which usually contributes to variable cervical lesions. Besides the HPV co-infection, microbiota study recently reveals that the changes of vaginal bacteria spectrum might also be related with cervical disease in WLHIV. However, data on HPV prevalence in WLHIV and its associated cervical lesion incidence is still limited in China. Moreover, the causal relationship between vaginal microbiota and cervical lesion in WLHIV is not clear. Here, we hypothesize that vaginal microbiota imbalance may make WLHIV prone to HPV infection,thereafter results in severe cervical lesion.
