Hybrid Capture viral load and genotype signal strength for the 12 clinician-collected cervical positive/self-collected vaginal negative discordant results. RLU/CO indicates a semi-quantitative measure of viral load. HPV type indicated; (n) indicates the relative strength of the hybridization signal; 1=very weak positive, 2=weak positive, 3=strong positive, 4=very strong positive.
