Clinical Diagnosis of Cervical Lesions Combined with Programmed Death Ligand and miR-124 Detection in Peripheral Blood
CONCLUSIONS: Combining colposcopy results with the expression of PD-L1 and miR-124 can effectively evaluate precancerous lesions of cervical cancer. This combined approach holds significant clinical implications by potentially enhancing early detection, diagnosis, and treatment strategies for CC and CIN. Further research in this area may lead to improved patient outcomes and contribute to the development of targeted therapies.PMID:38295311 (Source: Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine)

Clinical Performance of Self-collected Specimen HPV-DNA vs Clinician- collected Specimen HPV-mRNA to Detect High-risk HPV and High-grade Cervical Lesions and Cancer
CONCLUSION: HPV DNA testing from self-collected specimen to detect HR-HPV demonstrates high concordance with HPV mRNA testing from clinician-collected specimen. The sensitivity and negative predictive value of both tests to detect high-grade lesions are comparable.PMID:38285786 | DOI:10.31557/APJCP.2024.25.1.211 (Source: Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention)

HPV Screening Could Cut Cervical Cancer Deaths by Up to Two-Thirds
Screening women for human papillomavirus (HPV) every 5 years might reduce more cervical cancer deaths in a more cost-effective way than other screening methods like colposcopies, according to 2 studies involving women from 78 low- and lower-middle –income countries.

Telemedicine and remote training: the impact on obstetrics and gynaecology training
This article presents a framework to ensure training opportunities continue during telemedicine consultations, allowing trainees to develop their skills within the framework of telemedicine to optimise consultations and safe clinical practice.
Remote teaching offers several advantages and disadvantages over face-to-face teaching. The value of each teaching method needs to be considered for the specific setting and the content tailored accordingly. Hybrid delivery is an option now that the infrastructure is in place.
Telementoring includes remote supervision of clinics and expert review of, for example, colposcopy and ultra...

Effectiveness of cryotherapy delivered by nurses for treatment of cervical preneoplasic lesions
Conclusions. Cure and regression rates by colposcopic verification are like those reported for cryotherapy delivered by doctors. The sample size (CIN2/3) hinders comparisons by type of verification. Our findings support the implementation of screen-and-treat algorithms by nurses among populations with limited access to health services.PMID:38207156 | DOI:10.7705/biomedica.6966 (Source: Biomedica : Revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud)
