We performed a bivariate and a multivariate logistic regression analysis to identify correlates associated with the infection and to assess the viral load as a function of the viral infecting type. The fragments of β-globin gene and L1 of HPV, were amplified, purified and cloned, to evaluate viral load.Results:Among 253 subjects, HPV prevalence was 19.4%, and HPV16 was the most common subtype.... |
