*Q1, Q2, and Q3 refer to the first, second, and third quartiles, respectively, of the sampling-adjusted distribution of antibody levels.

“Infection” refers to incident infection over 4 years of follow-up. Analyses are based on 467 women for HPV16 and 477 women for HPV18; displayed sample sizes are sampling-adjusted.
