TL;DR: The redesigned MY09/11 primers were redesigned to increase the sensitivity of amplification across the type spectrum by using the same primer binding regions in the L1 open reading frame, and affords an increase in type-specific amplification sensitivity over that of the standard MY 09/11 primer system.

TL;DR: An HLA profile was produced that predicted time from HIV–1 infection to the onset of AIDS and support current theory about control of antigen processing by HLA genes and have implications for immunopathogenesis of HIV-1 and other infections.

TL;DR: The primary advantage of the strip-based detection system is the ability to rapidly genotype HPVs present in genital samples with high sensitivity and specificity, minimizing the likelihood of misclassification.

TL;DR: Results suggest that specific HLA class II haplotypes may influence the immune response to specific HPV–encoded epitopes and affect the risk of cervical neoplasia.

TL;DR: The cobas 4800 HPV Test demonstrated performance comparable to the Hybrid Capture 2 test (QIAGEN) for the detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 2 or worse and grade 3 or worse.
