Abbreviations: HIV, human immunodeficiency virus; HR-HPV, high-risk human papillomavirus; HSIL+, high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions or worse; WWH, women with HIV.

The overall prevalence of anal HSIL+ in women with HIV was 6% (115 of 1852). Prevalence was 6% (28 of 466) at age 15–34 years, 7% (47 of 713) at age 35–44 years, and 6% (40 of 673) at age ≥45 years.

HPV16-positive anal HSIL+ includes only HSIL+ with simultaneous presence of HPV16 positivity in swabs; overall prevalence of HPV16-positive anal HSIL+ in women with HIV was 3% (48 of 1852); prevalence was 3% (12 of 466) at age15–34 years, 2% (17 of 713) at age 35–44 years, and 3% (19 of 673) at age ≥45 years.
