Risk analysis for the persistence of HPV coinfections (the contingence tables, the p values, the relative risk values and the risk inference intervals for 95 % of the population). We marked with co-infections (HPV+) the patients who have at least two different HPV types and with HPV- patients who have just one HPV type. We considered as an exposure the age above 36.5 years
