% indicates proportions of mothers/fathers with concordant HPV genotype with their offspring. Cohen kappa (κ) shows the degree of HPV concordance between mothers/fathers and their newborns for each HPV genotype.

The following benchmark scale describes the degree of agreement (HPV concordance): <0.00, poor; 0.00–0.20, slight; 0.21–0.40, fair; 0.41–0.60, moderate; 0.61–0.80, substantial; 0.81–1.00, almost perfect degree of agreement.

Association of type-specific HPV presence between mothers/fathers and their newborns was determined by using unadjusted logistic regression analysis. Results are shown by ORs with 95% CIs. The reference category for specific HPV genotype positivity was the negativity for that HPV genotype. Moderate or higher degree of agreement (κ ≥ 0.41) and statistically significant ORs (P < .05) are shown in bold. Empty cells indicate results that cannot be computed due to zero frequencies.

Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; HPV, human papillomavirus; OR, odds ratio.
