1
Smoking status was analyzed by two different approaches: 1) among baseline only status and 2) among men who reported the same smoking status at both the baseline and their last follow-up (LFU)
2
Multivariable hazard ratio (mHR) adjusted for HPV status at baseline, age, race, ethnicity, country, circumcision, total number of female partners in the last 3 months, total number of female partners, and total number of male sex partners.
