NOTE. ‘Any HPV type’ cases are positive for at least one of 37 HPV types. ‘Any oncogenic type’ cases are positive for at least one of 13 oncogenic HPV types regardless of the presence of nononcogenic types. ‘Only nononcogenic types’ cases are positive only for single or multiple nononcogenic types. Odds ratios in each model are adjusted for confounders: no. of female sex partners during the preceding 3 months, age, and study site. CI, confidence interval; OR, odds ratio.

a

Odds ratios adjusted by confounders and other variables in model.

b

Odds ratios adjusted by confounders and other variables in model with the exception of smoking status which is shown only for comparison purposes.

c

Smoking status is adjusted only by confounders.
