Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Persistent infection %by with high risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) types causes cervical cancer but most women who test positive are at very low risk of neoplasia. Strategies are needed which can retain high sensitivity of hrHPV testing but reduce the number of false-positives. We showed previously that a combination DNA methylation triage assay for HPV types 16, 18 and 31 and human gene EPB41L3 was...
