Cancer is a chronic disease with a high prevalence both worldwide and in Iran. The present study was done to investigate the relationship between the frequency of different types of HR-HPV in patients suffering from high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and the demographic characteristics of patients. In this descriptive analytical study, 302 patients with female gender were included. Out of 302 patients examined, the mean (standard deviation) of the patients’ age was 34.12 (7.72) years. Regarding education, 25 (8.3%), 71 (23.5%), 97 (32.1%), 101 (33.4%), and 6(2%) had below diploma, diploma, between diploma and bachelors, bachelors and Masters, and PhD, respectively. Regarding Gravid, 63 (20.9%) had grade 1, 50 (16.6%) had grade 2, and 25 (8.3%) had grade 3. The biopsy from lesions was performed by a gynecologist under sterilized conditions according to the guidelines available in gynecology and obstetrics reference books. Next, the taken specimens were sent to the laboratory and their results were investigated. After collection, the data were introduced into SPSS 16, and analyzed through descriptive as well as analytical statistical methods. The results of this study can help clinical physicians to implement evidence-based practice.
