HPV and Cardiovascular Risk: Unpacking a Novel Link Between Viral Infection and Heart Disease
Abstract: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is best known for its oncogenic potential, yet a growing body of evidence suggests that persistent HPV infection may also contribute to cardiovascular disease (CVD). In 2025, pooled analyses and conference reports galvanized attention by estimating that HPV‐positive individuals have ~40% higher risk of CVD and approximately double the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) compared with HPV‐negative peers, even after adjustment for traditional risk factors.
