What is already known about this topic?Human papillomavirus(HPV)type-specific strategies play a key role in the prevention of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN),but evidence on the HPV type-specific prevalence in CIN is limited.What is added by this report?This multicentric study estimates the prevalence of high-risk HPV types in CIN cases and the associations of HPV infection patterns with high-grade CIN in China in 2017–2018.What are the implications for public health practice?Population-based prevention strategies should give preference to HPV-16 and 18,and strategies for non-16/18 high-risk HPV are essential for the elimination of cervical cancer.
