ThinPrep smears were screened by two independent experienced pathologists and reported from 2008 to 2010. A total of 46 866 ThinPrep smears were studied, and smears with inflammation were analyzed. Of the 44 162 enrolled patients, inflammation changes were observed in 21 935 （49.7%） and specific infections in 6884 （31.4%）. The infections detected were as follows： bacteria, 5663 （82.3%）; Candida, 825 （12.0%）; Trichomonas, 273 （4.0%）; and HPV, 148 （2.1%）. Significant changes were found in the prevalence of bacteria and Candida among women who underwent TCT before and after 2010. Z2 revealed an increasing proportion of specific infections found in smears after 2010 （P = 0.000）. In conclusion, bacterial infection was the most detectable in the ThinPrep smears, followed by Candida and Trichomonas. The prevalence of infection identified by TCT was found to be similar in previous literature in China.展开更多
