Abstract

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to identify from HPV infection and 66/817 patients factors that predict clearance of high-risk (8.1%) progressed to CIN 2 or higher. Age, human papillomavirus (HPV) infection parity, cytology and viral load at and progression to cervical intraepithelial diagnosis were significantly and inversely neoplasia (CIN) 2 or higher, in women associated with HPV clearance. Cytology, with normal cervical histology or CIN 1. viral load and presence of CIN 1 lesions METHODS: A retrospective analysis was were significantly associated with lesion performed on 817 high-risk HPV-infected progression. CONCLUSIONS: Cytology and women with histologically verified CIN 1 high-risk HPV viral load may be useful or normal cervical histology. Patients were markers for the likelihood of high-risk followed-up for a maximum of 24 months. HPV clearance and lesion progression. Cervical HPV DNA tests were performed at Histological status, parity and marital every visit. RESULTS: At the end of follow- status may also be useful factors to up, 648/817 (79.3%) patients were free consider when predicting progression.
