HPV-status after treatment including results from typing

Cases Controls
HPV-positive in any smear 45/189 (23.8%) 44/378 (11.6%) p < 0.001
HPV-positive in both smears 13/181 (7.2%) 10/369 (2.7%) p < 0.01
HPV-negative in first smear and HPV-positive in second smear 14/181 (8.7%) 10/369 (2.7%) p < 0.01
HPV-positive in first smear and HPV-negative in second smear 17/181 (9.4%) 23/369 (6.2%) n.s. (p=0.09)
HPV-types identified in any smear 34/189 (18%) 31/378 (8.2%)
As proportion of HPV positives 34/45 (76%) 31/44 (70%)
Different HPV-types in both samples 2/181 (1.1%) 1/369 (0.3%) n.s. (p = 0.26)
Same HPV-types in both samples 8/181 (4.4%) 4/369 (1.1%) p = 0.02
As proportion of HPV+ in both smears 8/13 (61%) 4/10 (40%) n.s.

Descriptive data and comparison between cases and controls. The denominator differs since not all women were represented by two samples.

n.s. = not significant.
