Viral Polymorphism in Human Papillomavirus Types 33 and 35 and Persistent and Transient Infection in the Genital Tract of Women
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Genetic polymorphism in human papillomavirus (HPV)-33 and -35 was investigated in 1055 sexually active women (732 human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] seropositive and 323 HIV seronegative). METHODS: Consecutive genital specimens obtained at 6-month intervals were screened for HPV-33 and -35 by use of MY09-MY11. HPV-33 and -35 isolates from 95 women were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction sequencing of the long control region (LCR), E6, and E7. RESULTS: For HPV-33, 101 (20%) of 506 nucleotides in the LCR were variable, compared with 10 (2.1%) of 483 nucleotides in E6 (P<.001) and 6 (1.9%) of 324 nucleotides in E7 (P<.001). For HPV-35, the proportion of variable nucleotide sites was similar between the LCR and both E6 (P=.54) and E7 (P=.33). The presence of a 78-base pair deletion in HPV-33 (relative risk [RR], 1.8 [95% confidence interval [CI], 1.2-2.7]) and the presence of nonsynonymous E7 variations in HPV-35 (RR, 2.6 [95% CI, 1.4-4.6]) were associated with persistence. When the data for HPV-33 and -35 were combined, infection by HPV isolates with nonsynonymous E7 variations (RR, 2.3 [95% CI, 1.6-3.4]; P=.001) and ethnicity (P=.04) were associated with persistence, whereas age (P = .14) and HIV infection/CD4 cell count status (P=.12) were not significantly associated with persistence, by logistic regression analysis. CONCLUSION: HPV-33 and -35 polymorphism was different between types and was associated with persistence of HPV infection.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
