IR=incidence per 1000 person-months.

Infections with multiple HPV types were considered high-risk if one or more high-risk HPV types were detected: HPV16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 66 and 68. All other multiple infections were considered low-risk if they did not include HPV-X.

HPV, human papillomavirus; IR, incidence rate.
