摘要
最近对埃及首次全国代表性丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)感染调查的分析发现，女性生殖器切割(FGC)是城市地区妇女感染丙型肝炎病毒的一个独立危险因素。我们使用相同的数据集来扩展这个分析。在生态学分析中，我们发现FGC与HCV患病率之间存在很强的相关性(Pearson R (2)-74%; P < 0.0001)。非医生进行FGC的HCV患病率(15.4%)明显高于医生(4.2%;P < 0.001)，计算出的FGC对HCV流行血清阳性的人群归因比例在女性中较高(79.8%)。
Female Genital Cutting and Hepatitis C Spread in Egypt.
A recent analysis of Egypt's first nationally representative survey of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection found female genital cutting (FGC) to be an independent risk factor for HCV infection for women in urban areas. We use the same dataset to extend this analysis. In an ecological analysis, we find a strong association between FGC and HCV prevalence (Pearson R (2)-74%; P < 0.0001). HCV prevalence is significantly higher if FGC is performed by a non-Doctor (15.4%) than a Doctor (4.2%; P < 0.001), and the calculated population attributable fraction of FGC for prevalent HCV seropositivity is high in women (79.8%).
