a

4vHPV types include types 6, 11, 16, and 18.

b

Non-4vHPV types include types 26, 31, 33, 35, 39, 40, 42, 45, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 58, 59, 61, 62, 64, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 81, 82, 83, 84, 89, and IS39.

c

Analyses were adjusted for age, history of ever taking PrEP for HIV prevention, HIV status, and lifetime number of sex partners. The aPRs presented for age, HIV status, and lifetime number of sex partners are from models that considered HPV vaccination history as a dichotomous variable.

d

Separate models were constructed considering HPV vaccination history as either a dichotomous (yes vs no/don’t know) or 4-level variable (yes with first dose at age ≤18 years, yes with first dose at age >18 years, yes with unknown age at first dose, or no/don’t know).
