A Practical Risk Measure for Identification of Adults With Oncogenic Oral Human Papillomavirus: Potential Use in Primary Care.
CONCLUSIONS: We developed and validated the oral HPV risk score that predicts the risk of oral HPV requiring only self-reported data and no laboratory testing. The Oral HPV risk score has the potential to provide clinicians with a no-cost, easy way to screen for patients at greater risk for oncogenic HPV infection.
