Age-specific prevalence of central obesity, obesity, any-type HPV and high risk (HR) type HPV in adult women enrolled in NHANES 2003–2010. Weighted prevalence estimates for women with central obesity, obesity, positive HPV DNA testing for any type or high-risk (or, oncogenic) types were displayed on the same graph. These single-year estimates for each age group were averages across the four survey cycles, despite of some variations, showing a generally increasing (for excessive adiposity) or decreasing trend (for HPV infection) towards older age. While these age-associated variations in central obesity and obesity parallel with each other, any-type and HR-type HPV prevalence became discordant around ages 40–44 years, at which time there was an apparent dip in HR-HPV prevalence
