Evaluation of human papillomavirus DNA detection in samples obtained for routine Chlamydia trachomatis screening.

Summary, in English

The costs and logistics involved in obtaining samples is a bottleneck in large-scale studies of the circulation of human papillomavirus (HPV), which are useful for monitoring and optimisation of HPV-vaccination programs. Residual samples obtained after screening for Chlamydia trachomatis could constitute a convenient, low-cost solution.
