Note that examinations with more than one lesion-directed ectocervical biopsy are represented more than once in this table; hence the total column count for the cumulative CIN2+ detected on lesion-directed ectocervical biopsies exceeds the number of total examinations (N > 181). Additional CIN2+ on ECC when the number of lesion-directed ectocervical biopsy was 0 is squivalent to the overall CIN2+ yield on ECC, as previously presented in Table 2. Chi-Square (X2) analysis for trend was conducted and does not include the aggregate rate of 26/181 in the first row.
