## Abstract Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the most important event in malignant transformation of human cervical epithelium. We analysed in cervical smears, HPV genotypes with a focus on single/multiple infections, then characteristics of HPVβ16 infections (presence of other genotypes, vi

## Abstract Viral DNA load and physical status might be predictive of either highβgrade cervical lesions or disease progression among women infected by human papillomavirus (HPV) 16, but these virological markers have rarely been studied in HPV 18 infections. The relationships between HPV 18 DNA lo
It has been recognized that human papillomavirus infection is the major causal factor for high-grade cervical lesions. The aim of the study was to evaluate the relationship between HPV 16 and 18 viral loads and cervical status in different age strata. A duplex real time PCR method was devised to det
## Abstract Oncogenic human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most important risk factor for cancer of the uterine cervix and a subgroup of head and neck cancers. Viral load has been associated with persistence of infection, whereas integration of HPV into the host cell genome is associated with transiti
## Abstract The clinical utility of HPV 16 and 18 viral loads remains debated. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical significance of HPV 16 and 18 viral load and to determine a cutβoff for optimal prediction of grade 2 or higher cervical intraepithelial neoplasia among patients referred
