Correction: HPV DNA test

In the April 2015 issue, on page 214 in the article by Jin XW, McKenzie ML, Yen-Lieberman B, “Can the test for human papillomavirus DNA be used as a stand-alone, first-line screening test for cervical cancer?”, the source for the information on predictive values was not cited. The final bulleted item should have read as follows:

  • HPV testing by itself performed better than Pap-HPV cotesting, with positive predictive values of 12.25% vs 11.04% and negative predictive values of 99.58% vs 99.52% (data presented to the FDA Medical Devices Advisory Committee, Microbiology Panel. March 12, 2014. FDA Executive Summary).

This oversight has been corrected in the online version of the article.
