    <p>Here, denotes the set of predictors of HPV clearance probability, such as CD4 count, HIV-1 VL, HAART, and HPV type. When one HPV measurement is unknown (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0030736#pone-0030736-g001" target="_blank">Figure 1A</a>), <i>i</i> and <i>j</i> describe the HPV status at the first and third visits, respectively, and parameters and denote the sets of predictors for transitions between first-to-second and second-to-third visits, respectively. The probability of changing HPV status from the first (i.e., known) state of HPV infection <i>i</i> to the status of HPV infection at the second visit (i.e., unknown) is <i>P<sub>i</sub></i><sub>0</sub>(<i>x<sub>a</sub></i>) when HPV status at the second visit is negative (i.e., “0”) or <i>P<sub>i</sub></i><sub>1</sub>(<i>x<sub>a</sub></i>) when it is positive (i.e., “1”). Respectively, at the third visit (with measured/known HPV status) HPV status <i>j</i> can be defined as <i>P</i><sub>0<i>j</i></sub>(<i>x<sub>b</sub></i>) when at the second visit it supposed to be HPV-negative, and <i>P</i><sub>1<i>j</i></sub>(<i>x<sub>b</sub></i>) when at the second visit it supposed to be HPV-positive. The sum over two possible intermediate states contributes to the total transition probability: so, the transition probability between two subsequent visits with measured HPV status could be presented as . When three subsequent HPV status are unknown (<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0030736#pone-0030736-g001" target="_blank">Figure 1B</a>), there are eight different combinations of HPV statuses in these states, each denoted by , , and as unmeasured HPV statuses which can be 0 or 1). Therefore, the transition probability between states with known HPV statuses is calculated as three-fold sum over all combinations of HPV statuses in these three unmeasured states.</p
