- Concordance Between Vaginal Self-swab Results and Provider-collected Cervical Swab Results for HPV DNA Among Sexually Active FTM Adults
- timeFrame
- 1 day
- description
- Quantitatively assessed the non-inferiority of vaginal self-swab for HPV DNA compared to provider-collected cervical swab for HPV via laboratory confirmed testing in sexually active FTM adults. Compared the concordance of the positive self-swab HPV DNA test results to the positive cervical provider swab HPV DNA test results (reference) using the McNemar's test, a two-sample test for binomial proportions for matched-pair data.
