Determinants of Cervical Cancer Screening Among Women Aged 30-49 Years Old in Four African Countries: A Cross-Sectional Secondary Data Analysis
CONCLUSION: The prevalence of cervical cancer screening in Kenya, Cameroon, Nambia, and Zimbabwe was low as compared to World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations. Age, residence, work status, smoking status, women's age at first birth, condom use, husbands having work, wealth status, and health insurance were the identified determinants of cervical cancer screening. Programme and policy interventions could address younger, rural residence women, poor wealth status women, women without work, and those who never use health insurance for the uptake of cervical cancer screening.PMID:37656980 | DOI:10.1177/10732748231195681

Age-Specific Trends of Invasive Cervical Cancer Incidence in British Columbia, Canada, 1971-2017
This study examined invasive cervical cancer (ICC) incidence trends in British Columbia (BC) by age and stage-at-diagnosis relative to World Health Organization ICC elimination targets (4 per 100,000 persons). Incident ICC cases (1971-2017) were obtained from the BC Cancer Registry. Annual age-standardized incidence rates (ASIRs) per 100,000 persons were generated using the direct method. ASIRs were examined among all ages 15+ years and eight age groups using Joinpoint Regression with the Canadian 2011 standard population. Standardized rate ratios (SRRs) compared stage II-IV (late) versus stage I (early) ASIRs by age (2010...

Disparities in cervical cancer screening programs in Cameroon: a scoping review of facilitators and barriers to implementation and uptake of screening
CONCLUSION: This scoping review indicates that there are knowledge and research gaps concerning the state of cervical cancer screening services in some regions of Cameroon. Moreover, it underlines the need for comprehensive cancer control policies and practices integrating all six-health system building blocks to reduce disparities between regions, and rural versus urban areas in Cameroon.PMID:37592286 | DOI:10.1186/s12939-023-01942-2

Roles and activities of nurses in cancer prevention and early detection in low- and middle-income countries: A scoping review
CONCLUSIONS: This scoping review provides a comprehensive picture of nurses' role in cancer prevention and early detection in LMICs, across all six World Health Organization regions. Additional cancer workforce data sources at the country level are needed to fully understand the activities of nurses in cancer prevention. Future research is also needed to measure the impact of nursing educational and other interventions in both primary and secondary cancer prevention.PMID:37435597 | PMC:PMC10331398 | DOI:10.1016/j.apjon.2023.100242

Implementation research: including breast examinations in a cervical cancer screening programme, Rwanda
CONCLUSION: In the short-term, integrating clinical breast examination with cervical cancer screening was not associated with detection of early-stage breast cancer among asymptomatic women. Priority should be given to encouraging women to seek timely care for symptoms.PMID:37397178 | PMC:PMC10300777 | DOI:10.2471/BLT.22.289599

Cost-effectiveness of artificial intelligence-assisted liquid-based cytology testing for cervical cancer screening in China
Lancet Reg Health West Pac. 2023 Mar 3;34:100726. doi: 10.1016/j.lanwpc.2023.100726. eCollection 2023 May.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: The 2021 World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines for cervical cancer screening recommend human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA or mRNA testing. Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted liquid-based cytology (LBC) systems also have the potential to facilitate rapid scale-up of cervical cancer screening. We aimed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of AI-assisted LBC testing, compared with the manual LBC and HPV-DNA testing, for primary cervical cancer screening in China.METHODS: We developed a Markov model f...

Cervical cancer screening aided by artificial intelligence, China
CONCLUSION: Cervical cancer screening using artificial intelligence in Hubei Province provided a low-cost, accessible and effective service, which will contribute to achieving universal cervical cancer screening coverage in China.PMID:37265676 | PMC:PMC10225939 | DOI:10.2471/BLT.22.289061
