*
The total frequencies in Baloch et al. [10], Bruni et al. [12], and Cheah et al. [27] were more than 100% as multiple infections were counted more than once.
†The total frequency in de Sanjose et al. [26] was less than 100%; no specific reason was given in their report.
‡
The HPV genotyping used in the respective studies cannot distinguish between the different HPV genotypes, or did not report the frequencies of the individual HPV types.
§
Only a small number of HPV genotypes were identified due to methodological limitations in this previous work.
