| Abstract: | Background: There is limited data in Ghana on the epidemiology of HPV and cervical neoplasia and their
associations with HIV. This study aimed to compare among HIV-1 seropositive and HIV-seronegative Ghanaian
women: (1) the prevalence, genotype distribution and risk factors associated with cervical HPV infection; and (2) the
prevalence and risk factors associated with abnormal cervical cytology. |
