HPV=Human papillomavirus; HR=high risk types; LR=low risk types; N=denominator.

a

Number of type-specific detections at all visits. Each individual may contribute multiple HPV type detections if samples are positive for multiple types.

b

Proportion of samples that are positive for any of the group’s HPV types across visits. Denominators (N) are the number of valid hand and genital samples over all visits.

c

HR: HPV 16, 18, 31, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51, 52, 56, 58, 59, 68. LR: HPV 6, 11, 40, 42, 44, 54, 61, 62, 71, 72, 81, 83, 84, 89.
