Our study aimed estimate the of HR‐HPV and intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) in China indirectly informs on burden country. A total 30,207 women from 17 population‐based studies throughout were included. All received HPV DNA testing (HC2, Qiagen, Gaithersburg, MD), visual inspection acetic acid liquid‐based cytology.
