🗞️ Congrats to @OlivierSupplisson from the team for his impressive analysis of massive #HPV data (362,963 tests performed in France from 2020 to 2023) published in #Eurosurveillance.

🔎 This is analysis at the #postcode level (!) was made using hierarchical #Bayesian models.

It has implications for #screening as he shows a risk of systematic inflation of high-risk HPV infection prevalence.

Maps also show increased prevalence for #HPV16 and #HPV18 in some areas

Only ~12 of 450 HPV types are carcinogenic. The riskiest is #HPV16.

Confusingly, there is a poor correlation between relatedness and cancer: HPV16's close relatives, HPV31 and HPV35, are much less carcinogenic.

The genetic basis of these differences is not well understood. 3/8

Australische Wissenschaftler sehen einen Zusammenhang zwischen Prostatakrebs und Humanen Papillomaviren. Bislang werden die Viren vor allem mit Gebärmutterhalskrebs in Verbindung gebracht.
